I received my four plants today (that was really fast shipping.) I have been really excited about receiving these. Knowing there are a lot of fraud websites out there, it's hard not to be the least bit skeptical when ordering online. Someone I met online had purchased some plants from here too so I trusted my gut and went ahead. For a second I thought they might not come at all, or they wouldn't be healthy. When I opened all the plants I was amazed!

They were definitely not amateur. All were bushy and pinched, like promised. Of course they're a little bent from being sent, which will go away soon, not a problem! You really went above and beyond.

Thank you for these wonderful plants, I couldn't be happier. Cheap and worth every penny. I plant to keep them forever (pun intended.) Have a nice day.

JUST LETTING YOU KNOW THAT I RECEIVED THE SALVIAS I ORDER THE NEXT DAY AFTER YOU SHIPPED THEM.

THE NINE PLANTS THAT I ORDER WERE IN GOOD SHAPE PLUS THE FREE ONE THAT YOU GAVE ME.

SINCE THEY WERE MOIST I LET THEM REST OVER NIGHT AND PLANTED THEM IN GALLON CANS.
THE NEXT DAY AND THEY LOOK GOOD.


I WILL BE ORDERING FROM YOU AGAIN.

Salvia keerli
(Big Grape Sage) There is a bit of confusion between this plant and Grape Scented Sage (Salvia melissodora), which it resembles. Big Grape Sage is larger in leaf and size, with larger flowers as well. It makes a great companion planted with it's little brother, which shares the same cultural needs. This plant is used as a medicinal herb by the Tarahumara peoples of Chihuahua, Mexico.

Give this plant a sunny and warm spot in well drained soil. Then watch it grow. Not fussy if these simple needs are attended to. Many that find S. melissodora difficult will do well with this species. The furry leaves, white underneath, are quite attractive as well.

And yes, the flowers smell like ripe grapes - a fact any small child will spend a great deal of time confirming.

Highly recommended.
