Amante Salvia

Amante Salvia (Salvia 'Amante') is a sophisticated horticultural masterpiece that has taken the gardening world by storm. A stunning relative of the famous 'Amistad', this variety features unique, dark wine-red to fuchsia blooms held in dramatic black calyxes. The contrast between the saturated red flowers and the ink-black stems is truly breathtaking, creating a high-end, designer look that lasts from early summer until the first frost.

As a vigorous member of the Salvia genus, 'Amante' is a hummingbird magnet. Its tall, architectural stems are lined with aromatic, bright green foliage that provides a lush backdrop for the constant parade of flowers. It is exceptionally fast-growing and serves as a magnificent focal point in large containers or at the back of a perennial border. Why you’ll love it: Rare wine-red color, dramatic black calyxes, and an irresistible draw for hummingbirds and butterflies.
