Sue, some people were using that on DG, that's where I first saw DBH and couldn't figure it out either...

Kinda funny, I think!

I love this Salvia. Been coming up for five years, now. Droops and wilts during the worst of the heat, then perks back up and blooms its head off from September to end of November. Light blue in Spring and a darker blue than shows in the photo in the Fall. Wish I could remember where I got it or what it is.

Kind of resembles my Salvia Black and Blue.

Looks a lot like 'Victoria Blue' (click to view).

In the end, only kindness matters.

Now, that's another one that's easy to propagate via cuttings - if I can do it, it's easy!

Gladly - it's one of my favorites. It's perennial for me if I plant it close enough to the house.

I know it's been a mild winter (for most of us, excepting Allison!) but I can't believe the 'May Night' next to my porch is still blooming.

Picture please Sheryl. Or are you going to keep us guessing?

Ugh - okay, but the area looks kinda carpy at the moment.....

Wouldn't you rather see my 'Silver Veil' heuchera that I'm so proud of???

Ooops = wrong thread!

That's okay, it's winter; areas are supposed to look crappy. I wanted to see it so I could decide about putting it on my "list" for when.....
I starred it. I love that it's still blooming for you in your zone & temps. That means it will bloom for me near the whole winter depending on the winter from year to year. I believe it will survive the summers here well enough too so it's a go for me on that variety.
Thanks Sheryl!
