Salvia Turkestanica ..... forKathy ...

Oh Amy, we'll have to wait for Kathy.

Where is she when you want her Dawn :o))

I would like to know too Kathy sent me seeds last year and Im waiting now for them to flower, so come on Kathy we are waiting;0))

Lol,its the start Amy it does get much better, one of my other colours are a little further on so I'll post a picture later.

Thanks Kathy , I'm totally in awe of these plants they are so fascinating , I'll be looking out for your pics. :o)

I was too when I first saw them Amy they came in that mixed packet of salvia seeds I bought, got to say they're my favourite salvia, bought a white form this year 'Alba' that has white flowers and lime green bracts.
Just put a piccy on for you, but if you want to see what yours will eventually look like I have a picture on page 13 of my pictures last picture on first row:-)

Hi Kathy/Amy - yes, mine are a little further on than this now. Just beautiful. Off now to find your other picture Kathy.

Hi Dawn , this has to go down as one of your favourite plants , I was enthralled by the whole process watching it emerge from a tiny seed .. .. I have several from Kathy's seed they have all survived the winter .. Thanks Kathy :o)

One of mine is on the pond island so it was kind of hidden, then I spotted these huge flower buds, couldnt believe it and to think they rise up, I find it amazing. Yes, definitely a favourite, need to collect seed now - did you save any last year.

Yes Dawn but I didn't need to as the plants from last year survived and came again ...

Good news to hear they are hardy too Amy :-)
