These plants have an annual development, therefore when it becomes cold they deteriorate, and get completely eradicated. The Scarlet sage can't stand temperatures below zero; they should be grown in cold green houses or at least in a place where they are sheltered by the wind; when every risk of late freezings has gone by we can place them outside or remove the protections.The Scarlet sage should be grown in a bright place, with direct sunlight.
Watering Scarlet sage
As the cold weather arrives, in autumn, usually waterings is interrupted because these plants can't bear harsh temperatures. Water rarely, about once every 1-2 weeks with 2-3 glasses of water , keeping the soil dry for a few days before watering again; when wetting we suggest avoiding surpluses, however to wet the soil deep down.
Fertilization Scarlet sage
Annual plants have a quite vigorous development and need, during the spring, a continuous fertilization; when placing them let’s add some humus or mature manure or some slow release granular fertilizer to the ground. During the spring months we suggest mixing some fertilizer for flowering plants to the irrigating water every 20-30 days.

Treatments Scarlet sage
Generally during this time of year we suggest a pre-emptive treatment with wide range insecticide and with a systemic fungicide, to prevent the attack from part of the aphids and the development of fungus diseases, often favoured by a mild and damp climate.
Soil Scarlet sage
We advise locating these annual plants in a dissolved soil, with an elevated drainage.
