I have only seen Nepeta tuberosa for sale at Quail Hollow Nursery in
Vancouver, B.C. I have been looking for seeds for a while now, but so far
without luck.

I assume by the yellow nepeta you mean Nepeta govaniana. I think it's
gorgeous too, but I'm not sure it could be described as
Mediterranean-adapted as it likes a moist soil. (?)

Do consider the various agastaches--they are lovely and undemanding.

My favorite saliva at the moment is S. transylvanica (origin quite
obvious!), which I grew from seed last year, getting close to 100%
germination and ending up with 14 happy little plants.

I am also a big fan of phlomis, and am searching for seed of
***Dracocephalum botryoides***, so if anyone can help me on that one I'd
appreciate it very much.

My euphorbia query  is on E. mellifera, which I am starting from seed. If
anyone in the SF Bay Area has experience with this plant I'd be interested
to hear about it.
