Salvia 'Cabrillo Sunrise'

Haven't grown this one before and Crownsville Nursery (where these pics came from) stopped selling salvias a few years ago. Don't where else through mail order this variety is available. Pretty buds and flowers. At least, there are other salvias available with this color shade.

We used to grow this one but dropped it some time back. It is not a good grower.

Good to know, Kermit.

I seem to recall trying this one and also finding it a poor grower.

California Sunset is superior in all ways, and very similar in color.

Apologies to those who have seen this already, but we have a two part article on these warm pastel Salvias:

Love California Sunset! Beautiful flowers. I grew it a few years ago. Might grow it again, so I'm glad you still offer it Kermit.
