Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Salvia 'Wendy's Wish' is a tall, long blooming citrus scented Sage. A clump-forming perennial with showy spikes of large clusters of magenta pink flowers on red stems. Blooms from late spring to fall. Use as a dramatic summer planting in the garden or pots. 'Wendy's Wish' is not that hardy but is worth it because it produces copious amounts of nectar for hummingbirds and other pollinators. Treat as an annual or overwinter indoors in greenhouse, house, or garage.

A recent introduction from PlantHaven, this ornamental sage boasts a floriferous habit, with spires of large fuchsia pink tubular blossoms accented with showy calyxes on dark tinted 3-4' stems.. 'Wendy's Wish' begins blooming in early-mid summer, and can be pinched back early on for a shorter stature.
