Salvia nemorosa 'Pink Friesland'

Salvia nemorosa 'Pink Friesland' offers a new look for an old time favorite with its pinkish-red flower spikes all summer long.

The plentiful blooms appear over crinkly, slightly aromatic green leaves. Pink Friesland's flowers are highly attractive to bees, butterflies and hummingbirds.
