Hot Lips Salvia
A cheery salvia that produces white flowers with a bright red lower lip. Flowers bloom spring through fall attracting hummingbirds and butterflies. As evening temperatures begin to rise, flowers may turn all red or all white resulting in a plant with some red flowers and some white flowers. As the nights get cooler again, flowers return to their original bicolor state.
