Salvia spathacea Powerline Pink
Identification
Description
A large flowered Hummingbird Sage that has been very stable in most gardens. We are always low in numbers as there is just not that much motherstock here. Give sun or part sun, regular water with good drainage or less water with poor drainage. Flower spikes can be 3 ft. tall and look like a pink digitalis, but are used by the birds. The name came from growing under the powerlines and being pink, sorry I was tired. Click here for more about California Sages
