New Salvias are appearing regularly through out the year here in Victoria as well as filtering down from QLD and NSW. Seedlings are found in gardens that are worth considering – only when they are sufficiently different from existing Salvias. Seed and stem cells are raised from overseas growers, bringing in new species and varieties. Nurseries are always selecting newer, better, dwarf varieties, different colours that will suit the home gardener. Keep watching for new varieties and hybrids to appear.

Salvias are placed when they generally appear in circulation or when they are released by nurseries.
