I used to have a bunch of Salvias before the gestapo had their crackdown and banned them.
I must have given hundreds of them away back in the day.
The funny thing was almost everyone would kill the first one and I had to send them another one. For some people it would not grow no matter how many I sent them or what they did.
Yeah, I'd heard that. Even with the same people sometimes it would work and then other times die almost instantly.
