Salvia 'Vista Red'

The quintessential landscape salvia, 'Vista Red' delivers intense scarlet-red flower spikes on compact, well-branched plants that bloom tirelessly from late spring to frost. Its heat tolerance and uniform growth make it a staple for municipal plantings, commercial landscapes, and home gardens where reliable, high-impact color is essential.

Growing Conditions

  Full Sun

Plant in full sun and well-drained soil. 'Vista Red' excels in reflected heat situations—along driveways, near walls, or in parking lot islands. Once established, it requires minimal irrigation and resists lodging. Pair with white alyssum, blue ageratum, or yellow melampodium for classic complementary color schemes. A magnet for hummingbirds throughout the growing season.
