Salvia 'Maraschino' is a superb bush sage that dies back in winter but returns vigorously each spring, reaching 3 feet tall and covering itself in cherry-red blooms from midsummer through the first hard frost. The flowers bloom nonstop, and the foliage is sweetly fragrant. Afternoon shade brings out the best performance. A hummingbird favorite.
Divide in early spring or take cuttings of new growth anytime.
Occasional aphids, spider mites, whiteflies. Generally trouble-free.
