Salvia mexicana 'Huntington Gardens Form'

Salvia mexicana, with all its forms, is a species which is sadly lacking on my website. Reason being, apart from S. mexicana 'Limelight', is that they flower too late for the British climate, i.e. the first buds get killed by frost...like S. madrensis. My plants will grow wild, twice as tall as me, but no flowers! So I have given up with these! I was lucky to see this S. mexicana at Cabrillo last month, which was truly wonderful. I understand that S. mexicana is an extremely variable Salvia, but this one is superb.
