            Despite the rather unappealing names I rather like that!

            Did anyone see the Salvia on Love Your Garden this week? Can't remember the name but it had deep purple flowers on arched stems.

            I flicked through it on catch up. It's on at about 32mins and they called it "Tubular Bells" which is a totally different colour!

            Looks more like Amistad, Black Knight etc.

              Longk,
              what is this one in your post #324? It isn't the colour of Amistad or Black Knight is it?

              I understood LongK to mean that his picture was of Tubular Bells but the one in the program looked more like Amistad or Black Knight

                  I have just planted 2 Salvia Hot Lips which have been flowering happily for several months in pots. They seem to have given up flowering - is this normal? Also, will they get through the winter outside (in the Midlands)?
