Salvia hyb. 'Pink Amistad'

Salvia 'Pink Amistad' – Award-Winning Pink Blooms

A stunning and award-winning Salvia, 'Pink Amistad' was recognised at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show in 2022. A more compact sister to the popular 'Amistad', this variety produces beautiful bright pink, double-lipped flowers, set against distinctive bronze calyces and stems.

Flowering from June through October, 'Pink Amistad' brings a long-lasting display of colour to sunny borders and containers. Its nectar-rich flowers are also highly attractive to bees and butterflies, making it a great choice for wildlife-friendly gardens.

With its upright habit and compact size, it works beautifully in cottage garden borders, mixed planting schemes or containers, adding plenty of colour without taking up too much space.
