I must have hit the markdown at the right time!<BR/><BR/>Patientgardener,<BR/><BR/>A half price basket of strawberries sound greats, especially since it will bear fruit for you next year. You can't beat the taste of a fresh strawberry!<BR/><BR/>Tina,<BR/><BR/>Good guess! They seem to have their discount racks at nearly every store. Did your salvia have more than one in the pot? That's another good way to get more plants fro the money, look for more than one per pot.<BR/><BR/>Thanks Skeeter!<BR/><BR/>Skaggs,<BR/><BR/>It does sound like the heat. I had two in the shade garden but the rabbits pulled them up. They are a bit moisture sensitive so you can't let them dry out but don't over water them too much.

Although I suspect that it will take several years to reach that point!Davehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00524456191483377274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7090836288987201219.post-49129335886267914462008-07-08T21:06:00.000-05:002008-07-08T21:06:00.000-05:00Good deal Dave.
