These annuals are easily grown from Salvia seeds, and they provide vivid color that lasts from summer through fall. Also known as Salvia Horminum Clary, this annual Blue Salvia plant is native to an area extending from the Mediterranean to Crimea and into Iran.
Salvia Blue Monday quickly grows up to 28 inches tall and about 12 inches wide. The brilliant purple-blue flowers last well as cut flowers or dried flowers. The plant prefers loose soil, good drainage, moderate water, and mostly sunny locations.

I bought some red sunflower seeds from this website. I also bought seeds from the big box store. The seeds I bought from this website sprouted first and look very robust. I am ordering more. Look for the next review once they bloom!!!
The seeds arrived quickly but we did not receive part of our order. We are still waiting for the ones we received to grow so too early for full review.
