Thompson & Morgan Salvia Microphylla Amethyst Lips Postiplug

Salvia ‘Amethyst Lips’ will breathe new life into your summer garden with its stunning, vivid purple and white bi-colour blooms, which adorn this naturally bushy plant. The foliage emits a delightful blackcurrant fragrance, adding to its considerable charm. Its vibrant colours and showy, bushy habit make it a perfect choice for cottage garden displays.Pot up your salvia plants into pots with free-draining compost and nurture them in frost-free conditions until they are robust enough for outdoor planting. Once the risk of frost has passed and the plants are thriving, gradually acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days. Plant your salvias outdoors in moist, well-drained soil, choosing a sheltered spot in full sun. Water and feed regularly until fully established.Although perennial, this Salvia will benefit from some winter protection in all but the mildest regions of the UK. If grown in containers, it can be overwintered in a cold greenhouse or conservatory. Prune lightly in late spring, as new growth emerges, to remove any dead stems and encourage a bushy habit.Product Specifications: Position: Full sun. Height: Up to 90cm. Spread: Up to 60cm.
