Salvia Summer Jewel™ Pink

2012 AAS Bedding Plant Winner

Sister to earlier AAS Winner Salvia Summer Jewel™ Red, this dwarf-sized compact plant has a prolific bloom count throughout the growing season. As a bonus, the blooms appear almost two weeks earlier than other pink salvias used as comparisons. And of course, the hummingbirds love pink, just as much as they do red!
