To help protect the plants during transit and reduce overall shipping weight, each order is shipped without pots. These are young starter plants, and each one includes a small stem with a soil ball that is carefully wrapped to keep the roots protected and moist during delivery. Gentle handling is important upon arrival, as these plants will need time to establish and grow.

To reduce plastic use while still ensuring safe transport, all plants are packed together in protective bags. This order includes 2 individual plants. Typically, both plants may be packed in one bag, so your order may arrive in either one bag or separated depending on how they are arranged during packaging. When you open the package, you will clearly see each plant with its own stem and root ball, confirming that both plants are included. Simply separate them gently when planting.

Greggii Red Salvia is valued for its bright red blooms, drought tolerance, and long flowering season. It is a hardy, low-maintenance ornamental herb ideal for sunny gardens, borders, containers, and pollinator-friendly landscapes.
