Rick, I'm late answering your question about the salvias and it appears that you have an answer. My LIR salvia didn't seed about freely and the places where it did so were in the crack between the sidewalk and the concrete border of the garden bed she was in, so go figure! I do have a salvia Maraschino that I rooted a cutting of, but it's perennial so I have gobs of it. It's quite lovely, though, and the bumblebees adore it.
