What’s this (November 2012)? - now guessed correctly
« on: November 16, 2012, 02:02:21 PM »
It’s a long time since anybody sent a ’Guess what’, so I’m posting this one. It shouldn’t difficult to find out, I believe.

This was obviously too easy and your answer is correct.

Certainly easier than Marilyn's climber with flower!

Go ahead, John!

The salvias were seen in the hillside above Dubrovnik airport, while Brian and I were waiting for the rest of  you to arrive for the Montenegro trip this spring (incredible number of orchids there as well). The colour was much bluer than any I have seen before of S. officinalis. I should have taken some cuttings, but at least I have the photos.
