Salvia buchananii - Buchanan's Sage or Fuschia Sage

(Buchanan's Sage) Not now found in the wild in it's native country, this spectacular Salvia is widely grown in courtyards and by entryways thorough Mexico.

The purplish, glossy leaves frame large and deeply pigmented hairy magenta flowers that are over two inches long. Ours blooms from May to October, and we love it in pots where it can be inspected close up.

Here is a Salvia for containers, partial shade and all the neighborhood hummingbirds. This is one of our best sellers - for a good reason.
