Cherry Lips Sage has masses of beautiful racemes of lightly-scented cherry red flowers with white overtones rising above the foliage from early summer to mid fall, which are most effective when planted in groupings. The flowers are excellent for cutting. Its fragrant oval leaves remain light green in colour throughout the year.
