Mary Lee, the coral nymph salvia and the salvia leucantha (Mexican bush sage), came from me. They both should be treated like any other salvias - good drainage, drought tolerant once established, full sun.

This picture is of the coral nymph shortly after I got it, and later in the year. You should dead-head the flowers when they fade to keep it bushy, it will bloom from Spring through Fall. It re-seeds readily, but the seedlings are easy to pull if they aren't where you want them.
