Since this is my first "normal" blooming season with 'Teresa' (having planted it last year), I only know that mine is blooming profusely, but compared to my other Salvias, it does seem to have small flowers. It's grown a lot since last year, though. I only water mine every 3 weeks, even with the hot temps we've had for the last 2 (upper 90s-100+). I don't amend the clay soil, though, so maybe that helps with water retention. Brenda

Hi Penny - I'm still following this post. My subrotundra that looked different from the others looked exactly like a coccinea. I think it was just a seed that snuck in. I didn't bring in any of my salvias. I intended to. I had some that were very small that I grew from seed and I was going to pot them up but got busy with other things (had to do some remodeling after a kitchen fire). I'm crossing my fingers that most of my zone-iffy salvias will return. We haven't gotten down to zero yet this winter but the last month or so, it's been pretty soggy. : ( Only one of my false yucca seeds germinated last year but it never grew any true leaves for some reason and finally died. John R. - the yellow greggi I saw was butter colored, not bright yellow but not off-white so I guess it just depends on whether you like that color. I don't care for bright yellow so I thought it was kinda pretty. The best greggi's for me are the ones that come back after winter. lol I'll be kicking myself if my salvias don't come back. I saved some seeds (greggi, guaranitica and darcyi) but they got exposed to a lot of heat when we had our fire then were stored in my shed until January. I put them in there because the bag they were in was so smoky then I forgot where they were. I'm going to try to plant some anyway just in case.

Thanks Emily. I wish it had been someone elses picture instead though. That pic probably did more to hurt attendance than help.
