Golden Delicious Pineapple Sage
Brilliant red flowering spikes are held above the chartreuse-colored, pineapple-scented foliage on this nonhardy salvia discovered at Intrinsic Perennials. Plant this salvia, after the danger of late frosts have passed, in full sun and well-drained soil, and provide moderate levels of fertilization. The scented foliage deters herbivores (rabbits, deer) and the red flowers attract hummingbirds—a good combination in any garden.
