My favourite Salvia? (Salvia)

Even though it's pink, I've fallen for this one big time!
This shows it's growth habit and a lot of its appeal I think.

Meanie:

Yes, very nice! I see you have a Thunbergia alata - Black-eyed Susan vine in the background. I still have Blushing Susan vines popping up all over my yard. It's driving me nuts!!!

Somehow, I don't think that'll be such a problem here in the UK!

Meanie:

Yes, I don't think you will. If you do get many seedlings popping up, they will all die in winter.

Good job that I didn't sow them in my new raised bed under construction - that one has a roof on for winter!

Meanie:

As cold as it get there in winter...even with a roof cover for winter most likely it would still die from cold.

I'll collect a few seeds and make my mind up next year.....

Meanie:

It's so funny, because I never see the seeds, although I see hundreds of seedlings! lol! :>)
