Salvia ‘Salgoon Lake Strawberry’ (Lake Series Salvia)

Salvia ‘Salgoon Lake Strawberry’ is a compact, bushy perennial that delivers rich magenta-pink to red flower spikes on strong, upright stems. Blooming from early summer through to autumn, it provides long-lasting colour and structure in pots, borders, and window boxes.

This cultivated variety forms neat clumps of glossy, dark green foliage that beautifully contrast with its vibrant blooms. Part of the Lake Series, it offers the classic tubular flowers and extended flowering season of taller salvias, but in a more manageable, compact size. Slightly softer in tone than ‘Lake Garda’, it is also marginally more cold tolerant, though winter protection is recommended in colder climates.

Highly attractive to bees and butterflies, ‘Lake Strawberry’ thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it a reliable choice for pollinator-friendly gardens, patios, and smaller outdoor spaces.
