I brought some Orange glory and Galelardia fanfare for the hummingbirds.
They are growing but not alot.
I like to order from Cottage farms cause if the plants arent doing so well or just die
they will replace them.

They're nice plants, and have been very reliable these past three years since planting. I don't have many butterflies visit my yard, but I know there is always a family of humming birds here! The Salvia are in the border near some Bee Balm, and I've noticed a lot of [good] insect activity between the two specimens, also. :)

If you're brave (and trust SnG) you could always order some Salvia from a mail-order or internet nursery. My Bee Balm (and several other plants) I ordered from a catalog, and they've done well.

I had one of these for years, and then last years harsh summer killed them off. Wish I knew where to get more, the butterfly's and humming birds just love these.
