Thanks, Sue! Smiling

Yes, people don't always know the difference between a named seed strain and a cultivar that must be asexually propagated.

I think that I notice this particularly because I've shared/traded a lot of Salvia seeds in the past. I include the mother plant's cultivar name but try to stress that the seedlings will not be that cultivar. Regardless, people will continue to refer to the seedlings by the mother plant's name and post photos to the database listing them as such.
