Perhaps this should win the prize for easiest plant to grow. It loves heat and humidity and breezes through a drought like a champ. Single one inch, white daisy-like flowers on a compact mound of green all summer. Very unusual and attractive. Essential for the butterfly gardener!

This remarkable, early-blooming, bicolor sage was developed and introduced by Richard Turner of the Strybing Arboretum. Two-tone flowers vary depending on the temperature range; the upper hood is a clear white while the pouched lower lip remains cherry red. 'Hot Lips' provides months of intense floral display, autumn coxes foliage into a deep burgundy appearance. Gorgeous!
