nope not black & blue.. no black.. but looks somewhat like my blue sapphire.. other than the foliage .. yours looks more chartreuse

Thanks, all. Wow, that's a spectacular shot with the hummingbird, Allison. Luv that!

Yes, the flower spikes on this one are a vivid chartreuse. This shot of the leaves is a bit fuzzy but maybe it will help.

I have no clue then sorry.. that was my best guess.. and don't think it's right.. must be a different one

this one looks good

Hmmm, could be. Or perhaps Salvia mexicana 'Limelight'? I just spotted that one.

hope you figure it out.. it is very pretty

I almost pulled it up ... but I'm so glad I didn't. I love it. I'm definitely saving the seeds if I can. Thanks for your help, Allison.

if you have any seeds to spare.. I know a good home for them

You got 'em if it works out. I'll keep you posted. Or remind me (which is probably a better idea.).

if I remember thanks!!

anyone grow the variegated annual salvia?

Tee, Limelight could be a match.
Mexican Sage (Salvia mexicana 'Limelight')

oh that does look closer

Thanks, Sue. I do believe that's it.

Oh good, it's a nice one!
I have been adding a few new ones as well as trying out a few agastaches now that I have a bigger garden. I love their fragrance and can't help 'petting' them as I pass them.

It is a beautiful plant and I'm lovin' it a lot. The contrast of the chartreuse and purple is more vivid than my photos.

Do any of you know the hardiness zone of this one? Are seeds readily available..It is very pretty!!

z8 - 11 per http://www.floridata.com/ref/s...
