WANTED: Mexican Bush Sage (Salvia leucantha)

7 years ago

This is really high on my wantlist; I would be willing to give up more than one plant or just pay postage for this one; it's not easy to find around here. I'd be so grateful either way if you can spare it. I have several perennials already listed here: https://www.houzz.com/discussions/have-perennials-to-trade-for-other-perennials-dsvw-vd~5685970

But I have others depending on what you may be looking for, too.

I know you're looking to trade, but if you're near the Raleigh area, the State Farmer's Market has them pretty regularly

Thanks, but I don't live in the area. It's not commonly found in my zone (7a midatlantic) because it's not as hardy here, although I've been able to get it to survive in my microclimate. But lost it a season or two ago. I posted here in hopes of finding gardeners who are more likely to have it.
