Variety characteristics:
- Scarlet Sage (Salvia splendens) is a perennial herbaceous to dwarf shrub species in the genus Salvia (Lamiaceae family), native to Brazil. It typically reaches 60-70 cm in height, bearing opposite, ovate leaves with serrated margins. During summer and autumn, it produces terminal racemes of bright red flowers, with the bell-shaped calyx matching the corolla in color, and the blooming period extends from summer through autumn. This plant thrives in warm, sunny environments, exhibiting strong adaptability. While drought-tolerant, it is susceptible to waterlogging and prefers well-drained, calcareous or sandy loam soils. Though not demanding in soil fertility, it grows best in moist, fertile conditions. Due to its cold sensitivity, it is predominantly cultivated as an annual in temperate regions. In landscaping, scarlet sage is widely utilized for its vibrant racemes and bushy habit, serving as a popular ornamental in container plantings, flower beds, borders, and as decorative accents in landscapes, valued for both aesthetic appeal and ease of cultivation.
