Salvia coccinea, commonly known as the scarlet sage or Texas sage, is a vibrant and attractive herbaceous perennial native to the southern United States and parts of Mexico. This eye-catching plant is celebrated for its prolific display of bright red, tubular flowers that are adored by pollinators, making it a popular choice for gardens and landscapes. The scarlet sage features lance-shaped leaves and a bushy growth habit, reaching a height of around 2 to 3 feet. Its striking blossoms and the ability to thrive in a variety of soil and light conditions make it a versatile choice for gardeners. Scarlet sage is a favorite for attracting hummingbirds and butterflies to the garden, adding a burst of color and wildlife activity. It blooms from late spring through fall, ensuring a long-lasting, picturesque display that brings a touch of the wild to any outdoor space. Whether used as a border, a pollinator-friendly planting, or a stand-alone specimen, Salvia coccinea is a cheerful and low-maintenance addition to gardens in its native range. Zones 7-10

Germination

Germinating Salvia coccinea seeds is a relatively straightforward process. Prepare a seed-starting tray or pots with a well-draining, sterile seed-starting mix. Sow the seeds on the surface of the soil and gently press them down, ensuring good seed-to-soil contact. Water the soil thoroughly to maintain consistent moisture without overwatering. Place the container in a location with direct sunlight or under grow lights and maintain a temperature of around 70-75°F (21-24°C). Germination typically occurs within one to two weeks. Once the seedlings are large enough to handle, they can be transplanted into your garden or chosen location, where they will grow into vibrant and pollinator-attracting scarlet sage plants, bringing a splash of color and wildlife activity to your landscape. Scarlet sage is a beautiful and low-maintenance addition to gardens, making it a favorite among gardeners.
