On plant Salvia leucantha

As this is a tender species, my book says to "sow seed in early spring in a heated greenhouse" - it does not mention that they don't come true from seed, so I assume they do.

Were they F1 hybrid? You may have some small, some tall, some bushy and some dwarf. As Bamboo says, sow in the spring.

If it is a true species rather than a named form then it should come true.
