DESCRIPTION
***A real Collectors Salvia*** It is an excellent plant to include in a white or grey garden The ginger coloured flowers and green calyces contrast so well with other silver leaves. It also grows well with other stronger vivid blues and purple flowers. A very appealing plant when in flower. Flowers are large with a lovely ginger colour. The hood is long, often looking like a butterfly just emerging from its cocoon. This helps to show that a large opening between the hood and bottom lobe guides insects and birds into the flower. The bottom lip has very interesting markings, that act as a landing place for bees. Both bees and small Honeyeaters loves trying to enter the flowers for nectar.
