Description
Salvia 'Cherry Red' 140 mm
Elite Cherry Red outperformed all other varieties in our trials, staying in flower throughout the warmer weather, whilst staying bushy. It proved to be a very hardy low growing summer perennial ideal for hot spots in the garden and low water use areas.
POSITION: Full sun to part shade.
FLOWERING: Best flowering is October to May.
USE: Ideal for garden borders, informal hedging and low maintenance areas of the garden where you want long term colour.
DURABILITY: Adequate water until established, then Elite Cherry Red can tolerate dry periods, but will perform best with regular drip irrigation.
CARE: Trim to shape as required with hedge shears to remove old blooms and reshen up the plant in the warmer weather. A harder prune can be done ir early spring as salvias come out of their winter slumber. Fertilise seasonally with organic fertiliser.
