Salvia involucrata ‘Hadspen’

Salvia involucrata ‘Hadspen’ is a striking, late-flowering salvia valued for its rich cerise-pink blooms held within deep burgundy bracts from late summer into autumn. Tall, upright stems rise above large, softly textured green leaves, bringing height, colour and drama to borders at a time when many plants are fading. Particularly attractive to bees and other pollinators, it adds movement and vibrancy to wildlife-friendly planting schemes. Best grown in full sun and well-drained soil, this impressive perennial works beautifully in mixed borders and exotic-style gardens. In colder areas it benefits from winter protection.
