[medit-plants] Re: Salvias that are drought tolerant

The flowers on the second one look like pitcher sage (Lepechinia) -- a salvia relative that is also drought tolerant.

I'm interested to try more of the drought tolerant types. There are so many different Salvias it can be very confusing. Do any of you know of some lists of drought tolerant Salvias? Also, I saw the following two Salvias growing locally which seem to do well during our dry summers. I hope the photos are clear enough. If anyone knows what they are I would be very grateful.
