This is a seedling from 2013 that has made it through stage 2 of our evaluation/testing process. If all continues well we might offer it this fall, or more likely in the spring of 2015. No name yet. Would love to hear if you all like it.

We try to stay away from names until we know for sure that a plant is a keeper. So, no, not yet.

@FBTS

Have you introduced this gorgeous pink salvia yet? If so, what is the name of it?

Maybe you should just call it Pretty in Pink, because it certainly is. If it is as easy to grow as most jamensis, I sure want to order one as well. It is such a lovely shade of pink.

It may be how the color in the photo came out, but to me it looks like Salvia Bleeding Heart - the same soft powdery quality of color Bleeding Hearts have. If a seedling turned up in my garden I would be thrilled.

It does look like the color of a Dicentra bleeding heart. Wonder when Kermit is going to introduce it?!
