Salvia Pink Pong
With such a delightful name, you know that this salvia will be no shrinking violet. Salvia Pink Pong bursts into the garden with masses of full lipped blooms of startling magenta held on woody, purple stems. Larger than life and sturdier than other varieties, it makes the perfect plant to add to the back of a border or as a bold specimen in a container.
- Pot size: 2L
- Height and Spread: 100cm (3ft 3in) x 90cm (2ft 11in) after 2-5 years
