Salvias keep on giving

Iadore my new hardy salvias. I bought them in the spring and six months on they’re big, healthy plants, giving brilliant colours. I love brushing past the herby smell that wafts from them. I’m sure these lovely plants will keep giving their pretty flowers until the first frosts. We need every bit of brightness in the garden to lift our spirits as we head into the gloomiest days of the year. Sylvia Monk, Hampshire

Simon says: I couldn’t agree more, Sylvia! My hardy salvias are still going strong, too!
