I didn't really want to plant it this soon but I had no choice because I'm leaving for vacation on Saturday for a week. My bigger plant has lost 2 leaves but besides that they seem to be doing good. It lost the leaves before I planted them btw.  |

looks good- make sure those pots have some good drainage!
If not- root and stem rot is viable!

They have excellent drainage. I was actually kinda worried that they have too much lol How often should I water it? I've been misting the leaves whenever they are visibly dry.

The leaves will stay moist if you spray the inside of the dome really good-
You should water when the soil starts to dry within an inch or so down of your soil. Use your finger and feel if the soil is damp down about an inch- if it isn't, then water them!

Ok thanks for the tip. I'm thinking my smaller plant is healthier than my big one. What's your opinion just by looking at them?

The small plant looks alot more lush and healthy- just give the big one some time and it'll be a nice salvia tree in a few years! When I ordered from salviasource I got 2 plants that looked just like yours- and one of the plants similar to your big one's top snapped off, and 2 side shoots came out- I rooted the top that snapped off, and the plant is looking lush now, and is even acclimatized!! I'm trying to upload a pic, but it's not working  |

I tied the big un' to a small stake because I was afraid of it snapping....I'd like to see that pic.

Cheap? Photobucket is free.....But the plant looks awesome. I hope mine ends up as full looking as yours. |

What I mean by cheap is that I gave the quickest info I could on me- just to create an account to upload the pic!
I did a cheap job on my account overall.
It would be way fuller- but I had to do some quidding and harvest a few leaves!! lol..

Oh lol I tend to take thing to literally. But that plant is really nice. I can only hope mine end up the same way. |

Wow thanks... I'm trying not to harvest anymore and grow it into a nice 7 foot tree! A good way to keep your plants under control once they're acclimatized is to put them on one of those tomato grates!!! [one of these]:  |
