Salvia longispicata (Salvia)


This annual is part of the mint family. This particular plant has been named "Mystic Spires Blue" and stands about 18 inches high. It was in bloom when I planted it in early June. The name salvia, a Latin derivative means "health, well-being, prosperity or salvation", quite fitting to be in my garden as I am seeking all four of the elements in my life.
