[quote=Anonymous]OP here. The shape of the salvia is closer but the petals are totally different--really they are like fine red feathers and have visible little feather wisps. Salvia petals look smooth. The plant consists of some leaves at the base and then a long, tall "poker" like spike. Most plants have just one spike, though a few did grow a couple of baby spikes. It was certainly sold as an annual. I have red ones and there were also some goldenrod yellow ones. I got them at Merrifield and I went down the list of annuals but none of the names stood out and I googled many but didn't hit the right ones. I should just call them or drop by. They've been going down hill for a few weeks, despite good watering. They just look old and a bit gray-tinged. Once I planted them (around Mother's day), they grew bigger and taller but didn't really add additional "flowers" except for the few with baby spikes.[/quote]
