Andi - Congrads on the move.. moving is the WORST! I particularly don't like my city any more, and I am getting tired of the attitude of my county, but I do NOT want to move because of the work involved! Especially considering I am getting my front yard almost exactly how I wanted it. And Orange/Coral roses ((Charisma/Kordes Briliant/New Year/Cary Grant/Dolly Parton) with purple roses (Heirloom/Intrigue). In fact, along my walk way in the front yard, I have my Picante flanked by 2 Intrigues. And when they're all in bloom.. looks SOOO cool! If you're looking for salvia.. go with May Night. Can't kill it, gets HUGE (about 2-3' around, 18" tall), after it blooms prune hard to the ground & about 3 weeks later it'll bloom again! I'm mixing more salvias with my roses now as I wanted to get the roses in the ground first and settled, then put in little itty bitty salvias from the big boxes (you can sometimes find them for $1).

Took new pictures this morning.. I think I'm getting better at taking pictures!
