There's a lovely plant I pass every day on my way to work.
I'd like to root it if I can and, also, to know what it is.
It looks superficially like rosemary. That is, the leaves
are the same size and shape. But the plant has a lighter,
almost feathery quality. Like rosemary it has small lavender
flowers which bud from the base of the leaves. The buds are
tiny balls. It could be a salvia because the stems are
square. It's around one foot tall and 8 inches wide but I
don't know if this is its full growth, and the base is
woody.
Thanks,
Barbara in Berkeley
