The flowers are excellent for cutting. Its fragrant narrow leaves remain green in color throughout the season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"NetPS-PlantDescHeader\" id=\"NetPS-PlantLAHeader\"\u003eLandscape Attributes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"NetPS-PlantLAPara1\"\u003eRoman Red Salvia is an herbaceous annual with a mounded form. Its medium texture blends into the garden, but can always be balanced by a couple of finer or coarser plants for an effective composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"NetPS-PlantLAPara2\"\u003eThis plant will require occasional maintenance and upkeep, and should be cut back in late fall in preparation for winter. It is a good choice for attracting butterflies and hummingbirds to your yard, but is not particularly attractive to deer who tend to leave it alone in favor of tastier treats. It has no significant negative characteristics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"NetPS-PlantLAPara3\"\u003eRoman Red Salvia is recommended for the following landscape applications;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul id=\"NetPS-LAPara3-ap\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMass Planting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBorder Edging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneral Garden Use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContainer Planting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"NetPS-PlantDescHeader\" id=\"NetPS-PlantPGHeader\"\u003ePlanting \u0026amp; Growing\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"NetPS-PlantPGPara1\"\u003eRoman Red Salvia will grow to be about 28 inches tall at maturity, with a spread of 3 feet. When grown in masses or used as a bedding plant, individual plants should be spaced approximately 28 inches apart. Although it's not a true annual, this fast-growing plant can be expected to behave as an annual in our climate if left outdoors over the winter, usually needing replacement the following year. As such, gardeners should take into consideration that it will perform differently than it would in its native habitat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"NetPS-PlantPGPara2\"\u003eThis plant does best in full sun to partial shade. It prefers dry to average moisture levels with very well-drained soil, and will often die in standing water. It is considered to be drought-tolerant, and thus makes an ideal choice for a low-water garden or xeriscape application. It is not particular as to soil type or pH, and is able to handle environmental salt. It is highly tolerant of urban pollution and will even thrive in inner city environments. This particular variety is an interspecific hybrid. It can be propagated by cuttings; however, as a cultivated variety, be aware that it may be subject to certain restrictions or prohibitions on propagation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"NetPS-PlantPGPara3\"\u003eRoman Red Salvia is a fine choice for the garden, but it is also a good selection for planting in outdoor pots and containers. Because of its height, it is often used as a 'thriller' in the 'spiller-thriller-filler' container combination; plant it near the center of the pot, surrounded by smaller plants and those that spill over the edges. It is even sizeable enough that it can be grown alone in a suitable container. Note that when growing plants in outdoor containers and baskets, they may require more frequent waterings than they would in the yard or garden.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alsip's Kingsbury Acres Grower Outlet","offers":[{"title":"4.33\" AKA","offer_id":44897677836488,"sku":"329SAL005","price":4.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0681\/5481\/8760\/files\/K317-25.jpg?v=1768936702","url":"https:\/\/akagroweroutlet.com\/products\/salvia-roman-red","provider":"Alsip's Kingsbury Acres Grower Outlet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
