Alas, this is not winter hardy for us. We grow this Peruvian perennial because we can not resist its woolly silver foliage and the surprising black flowers that appear from beneath the leaves. Fortunately, we can easily protect it and enjoy its beauty throughout the growing season. Salvia discolor forms a nice erect shrub.
Summer to autumn. 18 in. x 12 in.
