Salvia 'Hot Lips'

Salvia microphylla 'Hot Lips' is a striking, bushy perennial renowned for its unique bicolored flowers—white with red tips—that bloom profusely from early summer through late autumn. In hotter weather, the blooms may appear entirely red or white. Its aromatic, green foliage adds sensory appeal and serves as an excellent backdrop for the vibrant flowers. This drought-tolerant plant attracts bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, making it a delightful addition to borders, containers, and pollinator gardens.
