Salvia 'Victoria Blue'

Salvia farinacea

This little gem is drought tolerant and can take full sun. It's great for San Diego gardens.

It's a perennial, treated as an annual in colder areas.

Road Trip

Last weekend I took a roadtrip with my Aunt Sandi to my favorite state of Washington. We flew up on Friday and drove home on Saturday. Our mission: to pick up her SWEET dog, Sugar.

One thing I learned is that driving through a few states is not as bad as it sounds. The second thing I learned, which I've known all along, is that The Pacific Northest is where I belong.

I finally met Sandi's best friend, Nancy, and was able to visit with my dear friends, Robin, Tony and Gavin. Even though the time was short, it was sweet.
