The Story
Salvia leucantha (Mexican Bush Sage) is known for its striking display of showy bicolor flowers. It produces dense, arching spikes of purple calyces and white corollas from August until frost, attracting hummingbirds and butterflies. Salvia leucantha tolerates drought once established but performs best with regular moisture. Winter hardy to USDA Zones 8-10, it should be cut back after frost and mulched for protection. The plant's low maintenance needs and resistance to deer make it a versatile choice for adding vibrant color to gardens.
