Couldn't you just die over the awesome blues offered in the genus Salvia, as shown in your photo? Awesome!!

It has very little smell, and is very fine.

That looks like it would blend well with your Red Nerine to compose a beautiful picture.

Thanks J I had better shift the Nerine, it is in a shaded spot. I have been here 2 years , and this is the first time I have seen it, flower, Must be because I cleaned some plants out.
