Salvia microphylla ‘Makris’ is a hardy perennial salvia with strikingly large, crimson flowers that make a bold statement in your garden. Once established, it exhibits tolerance to drought conditions. While generally expected to survive UK winters, it may benefit from protection in the presence of severe frost. Well-suited for both pots and borders, this variety is a magnet for bees and butterflies, thanks to its nectar-rich flowers. Bred by Marc Vanlancker from Oudenaarde, Belgium.
