Red-flowered sage is an ornamental plant of Brazilian origin that became one of the most popular flowers in urban flower beds in Europe in the 19th century. Its bright red inflorescences provided flower beds with intense color all summer long.
In manor gardens, sage is planted in geometric flowerbeds and representative flower beds.
In rural homesteads, they were usually grown near houses or in the main areas of nurseries as a bright color accent.
In urban areas, red-flowered sage has become one of the most important flowers in public gardens due to its long flowering period and bright color.
Today, they are still common in urban and homestead flower gardens.
