Salvia Angel wings

Common Name:
Baby Sage 'Angel Wings'

Description:
Salvia microphylla 'Angel Wings' is a compact, evergreen perennial known for its profusion of soft pink, frilly flowers that bloom from late spring through to autumn. The delicate, two-toned blossoms, with a pale pink base and a slightly darker pink hood, are held above aromatic, mid-green foliage. This variety is well-suited to Melbourne's climate, thriving in full sun to part shade and preferring well-drained soil. It is both drought and frost tolerant once established, making it a resilient choice for various garden settings. Regular deadheading encourages continuous blooming, and a light prune in early spring helps maintain its compact shape. 'Angel Wings' is particularly attractive to bees and butterflies, enhancing the biodiversity of any garden.
