Product Information
We do our best to ensure product descriptions, specifications, care information and other details are accurate and up to date. Information is provided as a general guide and may vary between batches, suppliers, individual plants or product revisions.

Stock availability
Website stock levels update live from our inventory system, but occasional discrepancies can occur due to in-store sales, damage or stock adjustments. This is more likely when only 1 or 2 units are showing as available.

Product images
Images are provided as a visual guide and may not show the exact individual item for sale. Plants can naturally vary in size, fullness, colour, shape and stage of growth, and images may show a mature specimen to demonstrate how a younger plant may develop.

Images are either owned by Kambarang Garden Centre, used under an appropriate licence or with permission, or created with AI assistance. AI imagery is used to improve the background of existing photos, and to provide representative images where a suitable real-world photo is difficult or impractical to obtain, particularly for mature plants. Special care is taken to preserve the genuine appearance, colour, form, foliage, flowers and growth habit as accurately as current AI image technology allows.

Plant sizing
Plant sizes refer to the pot size, not the exact size of the plant. For example:

  • 100 mm = 10 cm diameter pot
  • 140 mm = 14 cm diameter pot
  • 5 L = 5 litre pot

Smaller pot sizes generally indicate younger plants, although actual plant size can vary significantly between species, varieties and growth habits.

Description

Brilliant scarlet flowers held in deep wine-coloured cups give Salvia 'Roman Red' a rich, eye-catching display above its mid-green foliage. This perennial Scarlet Sage forms a bushy mound with upright flower spikes, bringing bold colour to mixed borders, cottage gardens and large patio pots. Its long flowering display attracts bees and butterflies, and a few stems can be cut to enjoy indoors. Plant it in a small group for a generous sweep of red, or let a single plant brighten a sunny corner. Choose full sun or a position with some light shade, with well-drained soil enriched with compost. 'Roman Red' handles heat and some dryness once established, but deep watering during Perth’s prolonged hot, dry spells helps keep it growing and flowering well. Container plants need more frequent moisture checks. Snip off finished flower spikes to encourage more blooms, and trim back tired stems to make room for fresh growth.
