Salvia greggii 'Mirage Hot Pink' (2 litre pot)

Bring a vibrant splash of colour to your patio or balcony with our Salvia greggii 'Mirage Hot Pink' in a 2 litre nursery pot. This compact variety is perfect for adding a touch of the exotic to any sunny spot.

From early spring to late autumn, the 'Mirage Hot Pink' boasts stunning spikes of vibrant hot pink flowers, attracting pollinators like bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. The blooms emerge from dark green, aromatic foliage, creating a striking contrast that's sure to turn heads.

Reaching a mature height of just 35-45cm / 14-18" with a similar spread, 'Mirage Hot Pink' is ideal for smaller spaces. It's also low-maintenance, thriving in well-drained soil and with moderate watering. Plus, its heat and drought tolerance make it a fantastic choice for hot and dry climates although it may need some frost protection in colder climates.

This versatile plant is equally happy in containers, mixed borders, or rock gardens.
