Re: Favorite Salvia

I will look for it Ceres.  I'd like to offer another Salvia besides S.
kayome in our MG nursery, but have steered clear of them because of my own
experience, or should I say lack of.    Walters offers only S nemerosa
varieties and one S verticillata - but it is described as sprawling.
