I put them around my roses, gladioluses, lilies, grasses, and in pots. I just love these plants. Many of them now come up from seed of the previous year.

This year I have WS'd the following salvias:
Salvia viridis `Palisades'
Salvia `Blue Bedder'
Last fall I planted Salvia `Black and Blue' here (have it in my Asheville garden, too; love it)
Perovskia (Russian Sage) in Asheville
My list is puny compared to yours, but I'm being lured into salvias by the salvia addicts, just as I've been indoctrinated into rose culture by the rosarians :-) Happily have I been led down the garden path, pun intended!
Thank you for expanding my horizons.
ALL OF THEM! Ha. No. I wish.
Black and Blue
Lady in Red
Sowing some seeds I took from a friend's planter. Possibly Salvia splendens 'Sizzler Red Stripe', but seemed to have more stripes than any pictures I am finding.
And a few Agastaches

Wow! You are into salvias, big time, Lupine!
yea -- that is a great list.
Yes, I'm into salvias. I should probably change my name from Lupine to Salvia. I wish that I lived in a warmer climate so I wouldn't have to take cuttings in the fall or dig up plants to store in the basement for the winter. I leave the greggii's outside for the winter and I have never lost one despite the fact that I live in zone 5b and greggii's are listed as zone 6 and up. Apparently they are hardier than people think.
>>greggii's are listed as zone 6 and up. Apparently they are hardier than people think.
that's interesting... I'm zone5a and I'm trying Greggii this year ... i think "Wild Thing" [i'd have to double check]
Well, so far, I have or have started seeds for:
S azura
S. canariensis ( Canary Island Sage)
Indigo woodland sage
S. Patens ( Blue Angle)
S. scutelariods ( Columbia Ivy Sage)
S. Gentians
Somalia Sage
S. greggi Citron Stampe
S. Splendens Lavender gets tall
Forsythia Sage ( S. Madrensis)
Coccinea noid but looks like Brenthurst
S. G. Black and Blue
Got more seeds in the fridge and acutally forget which they are and but know several elegans and Yvone's Red, Red Velvet,
Mexican and Russian sage too.
Agastache Orange Hummingbird Mint, Spotted Bee Balm, and Osewego Ted (Red)
And theirs more that I want.( Lupine you'll be getting a D-mail, I have several I'm not listing in my trades yet....)
I have several also that I kinda think of a "generic sages" but they perform well, are not expensive so that get's them a BIG plus in my book.
