Grow Salvia coccinea in a warm, sheltered position in full sun for best flowering, though it will tolerate light shade. Plant in well-drained soil and avoid heavy, waterlogged conditions, as it prefers a lighter, fertile medium that doesn’t stay wet for long. Water regularly during dry spells, especially in containers, but allow the soil surface to dry slightly between waterings. Removing faded flower spikes will encourage continuous blooming throughout the season. In cooler regions it may be treated as an annual, as it is not reliably hardy in frost, so protect from cold or lift and overwinter in a frost-free greenhouse if you wish to keep it for the following year. Light feeding during the growing season can support prolonged flowering.
