You are welcome! And there are many different salvias. They are wonderful bee plants and grow just about anywhere. I have several myself. There are annual and perennial ones. Check out all the salvias in the data base, just loads of them! I think the one in your pic is an annual one. Here's some of mine.

Probably Salvia farinacea, Mealy-cup Sage or one of its hybrids.

John, that's the one I was thinking of, exactly! Had a senior moment and couldn't remember the name! nodding
