Dear Clyde, I grow a Salvia lavandulifolia, commonly referred to as Lavender
scented sage, looks similar to garden sage (Salvia officinalis), leaves
slightly longer and more pointed with a distinct scent of lavender about
them. The flowers are the usual lavender blue color. Is this description
minus the flower color accurate for you plant?
Thanks, Pam
