Garden Joy (Salvia splendens)

I bought these flowers for Christmas, for their red color and contrast with the green leaves. After the Christmas festivities passed, I planted these among the photinia. They really liked the new location and are flourishing and growing.

Salvia splendens - a native to Brazil. Is it warm enough where you are for these to be perennial?

Lovely plant, Aleyna! :) These plants are very, very popular here in the UK for summer bedding displays & town councils & park managers use them prolifically in their summer displays!

Wylie, I hope so. Lets see what happen during winter. So far they are very happy.

Thank you Thrupennybit

Thank you David, here the city has it planted in the main avenue (the city has ONE main avenue, and one more :) it's small city).
