'Hummingbird Mixed Colors' is a seed strain of tropical sage that produces plants with flowers in a range of colors—red, pink, white, coral, and bicolors—all on the same plant or within the population. This annual (or tender perennial) blooms tirelessly from early summer to frost, self-sowing generously. As the name implies, it is a premier plant for attracting hummingbirds, as well as butterflies and bees.
