A handsome new sister of the well-known Amistad to give your borders and containers some often much needed vertical interest. Tall, inky-black stems rise, adorned from July to September - and often longer - with racemes of silky, vibrant, red-pink open-mouthed blooms. Quite a sight to behold.Attracting bees, butterflies and other pollinators to your garden, the mounds of green sage-scented foliage which form beneath release a perfume when disturbed and are resisted by deer.A great addition to your dramatic and colourful indoor arrangements, the cut stems last well in a vase.Reaching a height of 1.5m and spreading to 90cm, like her well-known sisters, Salvia 'Amante' is easy to grow, preferring moist, well-drained soil in sun or part shade. A half-hardy perennial, with an RHS hardiness rating of H3, which require winter protection in cooler regions as temperatures dip below -5 C.
