I bought this as a small plant this year and it has grown so well with the amount of rain we've had. Sun loving but like us, it's not getting much of it.
It will grow to 4ft. The colour is more blue than the photo.

It is Karen, I love the colour. I saw one at Normanby Hall last year, it was a haze of blue, just stunning!

Stunning! I have tried Salvias in my garden, but they don't do very well!

There are so many different types too Rose. I am pleased this is doing so well and it also likes moisture, a good job, I'd say!

It's very nice Sheila and more the colour of Sky! African ones! Haha.
Shall I try a cutting for you? See if it'll root?
Ange's Cannabinas have flower buds..so they have liked the rain..:) x

That’s a kind offer Janey, yes please if it’s no trouble!
I also have buds on the Cannabina - it’s certainly taking its time 🙂.

No trouble at all.
Yes I keep checking mine every day and still surprised the buds haven't grown any larger.

It's a pretty colour, Janey. One of my favourites.

Snap Janey. Isn't it a pretty plant. I love the way it grows with all the little branches. Such a neat habit. :)
