Hi all ,

Very nice Hans - one of my favourite salvias, including the scent of the foliage, although it tends to flop about without some support. 
'Nachtvlinder' is rather fine too 8)

S.discolor is my favourite too. I lost mine this winter when the greenhouse electrics shorted out.

Are we allowed to share ours here as well - I have a few.

Good to know that here are other Salvia fans  ;D


I have also lost earlier S.discolor ...in this year I had luck and could buy a new plant

Are you know any sources for seeds of S.discolor ?
...only in case ...

I'm told that S.dicolor rarely sets seed even in its natural habitat.

In bloom at the moment I have;
S.algeriensis...............


S.gesneriiflora.............

Slowly the Salvia awaken. Salvia confertiflora has come back as has S.stolonifera. S.atrocyanea is growing like crazy now.
So the only losses or no show (so far) are S.discolor, S.breviabra, S.involucrata and S.cacaliaefolia.

Pink Blush has come into bloom.............
