From their website, "The purpose of Plant Select is to seek out, identify and distribute the very best plants for landscapes and gardens from the intermountain region to the high plains."

I had 2 and one died during the winter because I forgot to drill drainage holes in the pot. This has got to be the only plant that looks nice with dead flowers on it. | | Positive | CarolineL | On Jul 14, 2008, CarolineL from Albuquerque, NM wrote: I like this plant. It's big and showy and the bees love it. It requires only an occasional deep watering (it's common name is Mojave Sage). Haven't had a problem with reseeding, but I mulch heavily.
Santa Fe Greenhouse - aka High Country Gardens - does offer it for sale. 2 varities, in fact. I just planted the new Blue Flame. | | Neutral | rcn48 | On Jun 19, 2006, rcn48 from Lexington, VA (Zone 6a) wrote: Outstanding flowers and attractive large fuzzy silver leaves. However, I've given this plant a Neutral rating because it's almost a nuisance in our gardens, self seeding everywhere.
Edited July, 2007 - This plant was sold to me as S. pachyphylla, however it appears that it is actually Salvia sclarea. | | Neutral | ewinter | On Sep 6, 2004, ewinter from El Prado, NM wrote: This plant grows in the demonstration xeriscape garden at Santa Fe Greenhouse of mail-order company High Country Gardens in Santa Fe, NM. They do not, however, offer it for sale. |
