toby Posted May 2, 2003 i have a salvia with lots of flower buds but the temps here are declining daily, what should i do? move it into the minimal sun there is, bring it inside, or leave it alone? i'd hate to see them decide it's too cold and give up.

Fractalhead Posted May 3, 2003 i assume you are talking about Salvia splendens! Those red flowers are beautiful aren't they Perhaps laying a clear polythene plastic sheet housing over it (supported by sticks) to act as a hot house will help keep the humidity and temps up.

toby Posted May 3, 2003 yeah it's kind of like salvia splendens, i haven't seen the flowers properly yet, i'm near the city in sydney, so it doesn't get that cold, but this is what hbwr did last year flowered late and gave up on it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
