Thank you all for the kind comments, thumbs and acorns! I tip my hat to you. This was the first year I saw Salpiglossis available locally, I had to get one. Easy to grow, bloomed until frost and the color patterns made it one of my favorites to photograph this past summer.

Salpiglossis can be grown from seeds.
There are dwarf and tall varieties.

Excellent banner!

Outstanding, Char! Thanks for sharing this photo as a Banner.
I was putting up some photos last night and kept coming back to drool Drooling (there - I can finally use that icon!) over your Banner photo. Can you put some of your Salpiglossis photos into the Photo contest?? Or could you make a thread to show us some of their colours? Please give me a heads up if you do. There are so many threads to look at, I get lost. Rolling my eyes.
