The plants are so beautiful: large, healthy and just ready to grow and bloom. These are among the best salvias I have ever received. The selection of plants is fantastic too. My first order, but it certainly won\'t be the last!

I was very impressed with the careful packing when I opened the box with my blue anise sage! 4 out of the 6 plants already had beautifukl flowers! One stem had completely broken off at the base. I emailed fbts and got a prompt reply that it would be replaced. I will order from them in the future!

Salvia involucrata var puberula 'Hidalgo'
(Hidalgo Roseleaf Sage) The earliest flowering, hardiest and strongest growing cultivar of this species. It starts its outstanding floral display in June here on the Northern California coast, and continues - more and more spectacular every day - until cut down to the ground by a 20 degree frost. Some years it actually never stops blooming!

This Salvia requires a bit of high shade in the hottest climates, and appreciates a rich soil with regular watering. It differs from 'Bethellii' in having stems that are more lax, and it's earlier blooming time.

Thanks to Richard F. Dufresne, who collected it in Mexico, for this plant.

Of the four varieties of Roseleaf Sage we grow, this is the earliest flowering and strongest growing.

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.

We are pleased to suggest these other plants, which go well with Salvia involucrata var puberula 'Hidalgo':

Salvia confertiflora Salvia confertiflora

 (Red Velvet Sage) The 12” to 18” inflorescence of this exotic looking Salvia are crowded with small, velvety, orange-red flowers from mid-Summer to late-Autumn. It’s large, dark green, pebbly textured leaves are beautiful in their own right, making this one of our top 5 Salvia favorites.

By blooming time, either shelter from the wind, staking or near-by ‘support’ plants will prevent breakage of it’s heavy, red tinged stems. We have found that deep, weekly watering, an occasional light feeding of multipurpose fertilizer and heavy pruning in late Winter or early Spring keeps this dramatic plant looking it’s best.

Salvia gesneriiflora 'Green Caylx Form' Salvia gesneriiflora 'Green Caylx Form'

 (Mexican Green & Scarlet Sage) This is another dwarf form of the species whose origin is unclear,  beyond the fact that it came from from Mexico.  The large red flowers start in early Winter and continue through Spring, covering the plant with dark red flowers with  green bracts. This clone differs from the more commonly known 'Tequila' in being much smaller in growth, having smaller leaves and flowers, and having very distinctive green bracts.

Salvia gesneriiflora 'Mountain Form' Salvia gesneriiflora 'Mountain Form'

This clone differs from the more commonly known 'Tequila' in being much smaller in growth, having smaller leaves and flowers, and having very distinctive red bracts.

Salvia gregii x karwinskii 'Brent's' Salvia gregii x karwinskii 'Brent's'

 (Brent's Fall Hybrid Sage) Hybrid Sages using S. gregii are common. This one is quite uncommon. The other parent is the tall growing tubular flowered S. involucrata, Roseleaf Sage. The result, selected by hybridizer Brent Barnes, is a plant somewhere in between it's parents in leaf and growth, with 2 inch tubular hot pink flowers that will stop you in your tracks every time.

Salvia involucrata 'Bethellii' 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.

Pair Roseleaf Sage with our fine ornamental grass, Stipa arundinacea 'Sirocco" for a perfect marriage of form, color and culture.

 (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 produce a few flowers!

Salvia regla 'Royal' Salvia regla 'Royal'

 (Orange Mountain Sage) Another truly fine Salvia from Coahuila, Mexico. The foliage is tidy and the plant compact, with soft, large orange flowers that come for us any time of the year.  The absolutely unique characteristic of this clone is the bright orange bracts that turn heads of even veteran Salvia enthusiasts.

Salvia wagneriana 'White Bracts' 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?

Salvia x westerae Salvia x westerae

 (Hybrid Bolivian Sage) A natural hybrid between two Andean species, S. orbignaei and S. haenkei, this Bolivian native is nicer than either of its parents and deserving of a place in the garden. The large, dark pink flowers are profuse and long blooming. An ideal container plant!
