notes
Offering spikes of vibrant violet, pink flowers appearing above aromatic foliage from early spring to late autumn, Salvia ‘Salgoon Lake Flamingo’ makes a wonderful addition to the garden. A magnet for bees and butterflies, the long flowering plant is also notable for its resilience - thriving in hot and dry conditions once established. It is, however, a tender perennial, so will need protection to survive the winter.
Dimensions
- Pot size: 2L
- Height & Spread: 55cm (1ft 9in) x 40cm (1ft 4in) in 2-5 years
