Salvia greggii 'Ultra Violet'

Ultra Violet is a new cold-hardy Salvia greggii hybrid with showy violet-pink-colored flowers. This Sage selection has demonstrated exceptional cold hardiness and blooms all season, beginning in early summer. It also thrives in full sun and heat—drought-resistant/drought-tolerant perennial plant (xeric).

This is a relatively low-maintenance plant and should only be pruned after flowering to avoid removing any of the current season's flowers. It is a good choice for attracting bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds to your yard but is less attractive to deer, who tend to leave it alone in favor of tastier treats. It has no significant negative characteristics.
