Salvia ‘Faye Chapel’ is an heirloom treasure that puts modern, dwarf bedding plants to shame. While standard salvias stay small and bloom in short bursts, ‘Faye Chapel’ grows into a magnificent, shrub-like spectacle (up to 3 feet tall) covered in large, loose spikes of the most intense scarlet-red imaginable. Our 2-Pack of starter plants allows you to bring this heritage beauty to your own garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA Rare Find: Red Blooms for the Shade Gardeners often struggle to find bright colors for shady spots. ‘Faye Chapel’ is the solution.
