Robert -

There have been a number of posts regarding Salvias over time, and
there are a number of people interested in them here on
Medit-Plants.

I'd also like to take this opportunity to mention that there is now
an archive of Medit-Plants postings, created by Chris Lindsey of
Mallorn Computing (for his people there).  He has invited us to
partake of his work, and I may be providing him with some older data
to complete his effort back to the beginning of Medit-Plants.  I
include his recent note to me below (complete with URLs of the
Medit-Plants archive Web site).  Your comments regarding this would
be appreciated.

I'd also like to take the opportunity to mention that I've recently
received a review copy of Betsy Clebsh's new book on Salvias from
Timber Press.  I'm looking it over now and will be posting a review
of this work on Medit-Plants in the near future.  This book will be
available in the next month or so.  So far, it is certainly living
up to my expectations!!

 Sean,

    I'm pleased to announce that the archives are much more user-friendly
 now and are coupled with a search engine.  They're available at

    http://www.mallorn.com/lists/medit-plants/

 and the search engine is at

    http://www.mallorn.com/lists/medit-plants/search.cgi

 Try them out -- I think you'll be pleased!  If you would like me to add
 archives from the past 2 years, I would be more than happy.  I sent a note
 in February responding to most of the questions you asked below -- let me
 know if you'd like me to embellish, etc.

 Chris
