Salvia 'Raspberry Delight'®
Raspberry Delight Hybrid Bush Sage
Quick Facts :: Growing Tips
Legend
Description:
3’ x 3’ wide (cutting propagated) During the spring and summer of 1998, I spent a lot of time evaluating a very large group of Salvia plants grown from seed I had collected the previous year. Finally, I spotted a single plant that stood out head and shoulders above all the rest; ‘Raspberry Delight’® had been found! This stunning ever-blooming hybrid has a profusion of deeply-colored, raspberry-red flowers held well above its long, arching branches. The foliage is deep green and has a sweet herbal fragrance when brushed. Garden trials have shown it to be a fast, vigorous grower with excellent heat tolerance and cold hardiness.
Zones 6-10.
Special Notes:
Plant with Russian Sage, Artemisia versicolor, Calamagrostis x acutifolia ‘Karl Foerster’, and Lavandula angustifolia ‘Mitcham Gray’.
