Morning everyone. This is one of last week’s four purchases that I’ve not planted out yet and they are all coming in to flower. I love the rich colour of this salvia 💜. Have a great day #salvia-amethyst-lips #purple #amethyst

Morning Jane, I love the colour too, #salvias the way to go, they like my garden and are #drought-tolerant 👍🏻. I bit the bullet and did some moving and planting (9 o’clock last night!) thinking/hoping the promised rains would come…

Morning again Elise and thank you. Where on earth do you get your energy from. By nine o’clock I’m about as useful as a chocolate soldier in this heat 😂 @Auricula

Morning Jane, a bit of rain last night but not enough to make a lot of difference, I got a cutting of amethyst lips from a friend waiting for it to flower as it is still in greenhouse, the soil in garden is like concrete so nothing is getting planted out at the moment.

I haven't had any for a couple of years, I don't have a very good track record with them so fingers crossed for this one 🤞💜 @hebelover

We were supposed to get some rain but it didn’t materialise 🙄. My soil is the same so my new plants won’t be going in the soil anytime soon @joannie.a

I've got this in my front garden Jane - the bees absolutely love it, it's done well in the drought and the the leaves smell of blackberries when you brush past it or water it.
