salvia flowering

Recommended Posts

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.

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.
