Overview

Bright pink blooms with pale throats and maroon calyces appear in succession on upright stems, flowering from early summer into autumn. This long-flowering, large blooming (up to 1in across) salvia attracts bees and other pollinators and adds strong colour to mixed borders or pots.

Foliage is aromatic, with small, narrow leaves that give the plant a neat, fine-textured appearance. Once established, it tolerates heat and short dry spells, making it a reliable option for low-maintenance, climate-resilient planting schemes.

Salvia Malabar ‘Mighty Pink’ is perfect for spectacular sunny borders, gravel gardens or containers.

Specifications

  • Position: Full sun
  • Soil: Moderately fertile, moist but well-drained soil
  • Rate of growth: Average
  • Flowering period: June to October
  • Hardiness: Borderline hardy (will need protection in winter in colder areas)

Care guide

When planting, incorporate compost to improve drainage and fertility, spacing plants 30-45cm (12-18in) apart and watering thoroughly.

To keep the plant blooming throughout the season, promptly remove flower spikes as soon as they begin to fade - this deadheading encourages the plant to produce more flowers rather than putting energy into seed production.

In early spring, apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of well-rotted garden compost or manure around the base of the plant to retain moisture, suppress weeds, and provide essential nutrients as it breaks down. Ensure the mulch is spread evenly, but keep it away from the stems to prevent rot.

Regular watering, particularly in dry spells, will help maintain healthy growth, but be careful not to waterlog the soil, as this salvia prefers well-drained conditions.
