Salvia longistyla: a tall slender shrub 3-4mH with cordate leaves, a square stem and spires of dark red thin tubular flowers in winter. As this Salvia is a tall, strong growing, slender plant, it is best grown beside a tree or bushy shrub to grow through, to act as protection from strong winds and frost. Grow in a sunny or dappled sun position, while this Salvia reaches for the sky.
