Testimonials
I was very impressed with the careful packing when I opened the box with my blue anise sage! 4 out of the 6 plants already had beautiful flowers! One stem had completely broken off at the base. I emailed fbts and got a prompt reply that it would be replaced. I will order from them in the future!
Shelly Hales

I am a delighted returning customer. FBTS provides beautiful, healthy plants with friendly and fast service.

Moisture Loving


Most consider Salvias to be plants that survive dry, even drought conditions. There are many that fit that bill, but many others that thrive with regular watering - and even a few that will grow well in wet conditions.

While none of these are marshland plants, they all will grow well in conditions that are moist to wet most of the time.
