Originally we had the wrong plant as oppositiflora so sometimes I have to physically think out what I am talking about.    Oppositiflora is a fine sort of plant with narrow leaves on a willowy small bush and a lot of orange flowers.   It grows willingly to perhaps one metre and will probably flower year round in warm climates.   I may have lost the plant entirely.

Propagation is by cuttings.

Price: $9

Oppositiflora in Betsy Clebsch’s New Book of Salvias is actually S. tubiflora.
