Salvia coccinea, also known as blood sage, scarlet sage, Texas sage, or tropical sage, is a perennial herb found in the Southeastern United States, Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean, and northern South America. Its specific epithet, coccinea, refers to the scarlet color of its flowers. The plant can reach up to 4 feet in height and has hairy, scalloped leaves. Its flowers, which come in various colors and sizes, are pollinated by hummingbirds and butterflies. Salvia coccinea is commonly cultivated in urban green areas and private gardens, with a long flowering period from summer to autumn. It is hardy in USDA Hardiness Zones 8-10.

Germination/Propagation Top
Suggest a correction or add new data!| Sow seeds at 20°C, expecting germination within 3 months without further temperature treatment. |
| Requires Light or Surface Sowing: These seeds need light to germinate and should not be covered with soil or only very lightly. They are often very small and sown directly on the surface of the growing medium. |
