Very nice. I find it difficult to photograph salpiglossis. The chocolate comes out more red that what I see. Also, I too have had poor germination with the blue one anytime I've tried it

No, darn it. Wish I had gotten some pics. Gotta start making myself some notes; had a couple of combinations that looked very nice this year. That blue lobelia also looks very nice with pale yellow petunias mixed with orange marigolds. And Black Dragon coleus. Yup, I do like blue lobelia... Hilarious!

That sounds like a great comb. Yep, notes, because you will wish you had come spring and planting time. Speaking for myself never can remember.

This is decidedly past it's prime, but it gives a bit of an idea what a nice accent that dark blue lobelia makes.

Thanks! You should have seen it earlier in the year! Smiling I mostly took the picture to remind myself to do that again next year!

I truly like these but unfortunately they did not germinate for me Sad I've gotten seeds several times and still nothing.
I'm willing to try again (another have extra seeds to trade?).
