24-36" tall x 24-36" wide. Have some fun in your garden with ‘Hot Lips’ – an ornamental salvia that will have your visitors chuckling at the well-deserved name and will give your hummingbirds the mouth-to-mouth resuscitation they need all season long. Whether you plant this sun-lover in the back of the border or in a meadow or naturalistic garden, make sure you plant it somewhere where you can see those pollinators visiting the white and lipstick-red blooms. Low maintenance and floriferous from summer through fall, you can lightly cut it back to revive foliage in late summer. It also sports a light, resinous fragrance reminiscent of black currants. Hot Lips’ is a perennial south of Zone 8 but will occasionally overwinter with a thick blanket of mulch in Zone 7. Seasonal temperatures will affect whether blooms are bi-color or appear in single shades of red or white.
