Southern Living, Sunset Introduce New VarietiesSource: Southern Living, Sunset

‘Love and Wishes’ and ‘Ember’s Wish’ salvias are the latest introductions from Southern Living Plant Collection and Sunset Western Garden Collection. Cousins of ‘Wendy’s Wish’ salvia, these fast growers are ideal for adding color to landscapes and perform well in full sun to part shade. Bright flowers and long bloom seasons (year round in frost-free climates) make these salvias standout. ‘Love and Wishes’ and ‘Ember’s Wish’ salvias are characterized by their size (3 feet wide by 3-4 feet high) and heat tolerance. The deep purples of ‘Love and Wishes’ and the bright coral blooms of ‘Ember’s Wish’ form eye-catching balls of color and will enhance gardens with no pruning or deadheading.
