These plants grow nicely in an 18-inch patio pot.
Salvias bring color to the garden now and especially through fall.
They also give you plants for fresh and dried arrangements and wreaths. No mess or fuss, just plant and water when necessary,'' says Nona Koivula, executive director of the National Garden Bureau. The bureau, information central for 46 seed companies, has named '99 as the Year of the Salvia. Colors range from red, scarlet, salmon, purple and lilac to deep and light blue, white and bicolors. Salvias are found most everywhere in the world.
