Salvia "Splash" I think is really Salvia "Dancing Flames" I had it but lost it last winter when I forgot to take cuttings before we froze. Thank You Debra, cause I could not find it again this year, and seeds MOST likely will not come true from this.

Debra, Orchids are really not that hard, most people end up overwatering them...We grow ours in Lava rock/charcoal mix, I generally mist mine more than "water" them.

I'm trying to root Rose of Sharon Variegated "Sugar Tips" that were sent to me now...boy do they take a long time, silly things have new growth on them but just a few roots.

Prita - I like that Cleredendrum too, do you grow it in a pot ? I grow my Bleeding Hearts in the Ground, and sometimes have to pull up a few "travelers"...or we just mow them down as it's on a fence line that get's mowed frequently. The Cashmere Bouquet and Pagoda Flower are also in spots where they get mowed if they get out of hand, it's funny tho they will come back and be these tiny very fat plantlets. If anyone ever wants some let me know I'll dig some up for you. Not too many now though since it's been soooooo dry.
