We're trying this Salmon variety for 2003. Vista series is an

foliage is maintained throughout the summer.
Great mix of color from summer through early fall.
Averaging 40% rose, 40% blue-purple, and 20% white, these colored
bracts decorate the tops of the 26-28" branches. Because this Salvia
tolerates the first light frosts of fall, it provides beauty in containers,
beds, and for cutting long after other annuals are gone.
Dark purple flowers with nearly black calyx. Amistad is more
compact and has a fuller habit then other guaranitica types. Flowers
are a magnet for butterflies and hummingbirds.
A sport of Salvia 'Indigo Spires', this is a shorter, more compact
version. Striking blue flower spikes accent the green foliage and
attract humingbirds and butterflies. Excellent for containers, baskets
