'''''Salvia farinacea''''' ('''Mealy sage''', '''Mealycup sage''') is a herbaceous perennial native to [[Mexico]] and parts of the United States including [[Texas]]. Violet-blue spikes rest on a compact plant of typically narrow salvia-like leaves, however, the shiny leaves are what set this species apart from a more most other ''Salvia'', which bear velvety-dull leaves.  This plant requires full or part-sun and will grow to 18" or more with good soil.  This plant will attract [[butterfly|butterflies]] and [[hummingbird|hummingbirds]].

Salvia farinacea (Mealy sage, Mealycup sage) is a herbaceous perennial native to Mexico and parts of the United States including Texas. Violet-blue spikes rest on a compact plant of typically narrow salvia-like leaves, however, the shiny leaves are what set this species apart from a more most other Salvia, which bear velvety-dull leaves. This plant requires full or part-sun and will grow to 18" or more with good soil. This plant will attract butterflies and hummingbirds.
