Salvia greggii ‘Red Swing’

Salvia greggii ‘Red Swing’ is a vibrant autumn sage that brings rich scarlet‑red flowers to your garden from late spring through to autumn. Its upright, bushy habit creates an eye‑catching display in borders, mixed plantings, or containers, where the bright flowers sit beautifully above aromatic green foliage.

This variety is especially loved by bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, turning your outdoor space into a lively, buzzing hub of activity throughout the growing season. Its nectar‑rich blooms make it a standout choice for wildlife‑friendly gardens, while the colour adds drama and warmth to sunny spots.

Salvia greggii ‘Red Swing’ thrives in full sun and prefers well‑drained soil — once established, it shows good drought tolerance and requires minimal care. Occasional deadheading encourages fresh flowers and helps maintain a neat, compact shape.

Hardy in most parts of the UK, this autumn sage may benefit from light winter protection in colder regions to ensure it returns strong each year. Its combination of vibrant colour, pollinator appeal, and easy‑care performance makes Salvia greggii ‘Red Swing’ a go‑to choice for gardeners seeking long‑lasting impact in sunny outdoor spaces
