    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Here we have a very rare Salvia from Spain. It grows 3-4’ tall and bears sprays of large, violet, orchid-like flowers on long thin branching stems, held well above its clump of fragrant, wrinkled leaves. One of the most beautiful of all Salvias and very hardy.
