Ours is a salmon color and this three years old has been blooming for over a month now. Its growing at the edge of an elevated plot where it gets winter rain and twice a week hand watering in summer. It's of a small stature as salvias go so its well behaved in in the border. I noticed today it's set some seed but I've yet to see any seedlings naturally occur. It has breezed through our drought with little help from me. Here are a couple of pics from 2014 of the same plant posted in the database in 2016 and you can see there has been no increase in the size of the plant just more blooms in a rainy year like this one. I'm always on the lookout for some of the Lavender flowered cultivars to try out.
