One of the species in my native Ca. research project is a Salvia
sonomensis. After 1 season in the ground, there were some stems that
had stretched by that method to 89"!!. Anyone need a good floriferous
ground cover?

Just out pruning and stopped to pull a salvia lanceolata out of the
neighboring dwarf mandarin trees. After just a few years, this
"touch and root" salvia has reached about 9' in diameter. Will it
ever stop?
