	Lamiaceae > Salvia stenophylla var. ,

Salvia stenophylla is a perennial shrub native to a wide area in South Africa, growing on grassy or stony slopes, and in open countryside or among shrubs. It has been used traditionally as a disinfectant, by burning it in huts after sickness, and also mixed with tobacco for smoking. Its specific epithet, stenophylla, refers to the narrow leaves.

Salvia stenophylla is a many-branched and upright shrub that reaches up to 2 ft m tall and wide in the wild, less in cultivation. The stems are square and lightly covered with hairs. The sparsely spaced leaves are pinnatid, growing up to 2 in cm long and .5 in cm wide, with ten pairs of narrow segments that have glands. These glands give off a wood-like aroma when brushed. The tiny pale blue flowers grow in whorls of six to eight, and are held in a calyx that is hairy and covered with oil glands.
