Salvia involucrata 'Bethellii'

(Roseleaf Sage) One of our very favorite plants. It starts flowering in August, and continues - more and more spectacular every day - until cut down to the ground by a hard frost. This Salvia requires a bit of high shade in the hottest climates, and appreciates a rich soil with regular watering.

Of the four varieties of Roseleaf Sage we grow, this is the largest.

Use this Salvia where you want a bold, strong statement. We like to pair it with Salvia mexicana varieties for a contrast in color and leaf.

Salvia karwinskii 'Red Form'

(Red Flowered Karwinski's Sage) From moist mountain areas in Mexico and Central America, this rugged, winter blooming shrub is found in oak or pine forests at 4,000ft.-8,000ft. It’s high altitude habitat must account for the fact that this winter bloomer withstands short term temperatures into the low 20’s and still produces a few flowers!

Salvia wagneriana 'White Bracts'

(Pink & White Wagner's Sage) From the cloud forests of Southern Mexico and Central America comes this 100% dazzling winter blooming beauty. This one differs from the straight species in having white bracts instead of the usual pink. We have it in bloom from November through March - come snow, ice or temperatures as low as 20 degrees. How hardy is this plant, beloved and cultivated by the people in its native lands?
