Details
Salvia coccinea 'Summer Jewel Red' is a knockout, with loads of bright scarlet flower spikes that hummingbirds can't resist. This Wildflower Salvia is a 2011 All-American Selections Winner and a judges' favorite for its early and abundant bright red blooms that keep on coming from Spring until Fall!. Will drop seed and produce plantlets for many years. Bigger plants than 'Lady in Red'. For birdlovers, Goldfinches are attracted for the seed!
