Title: Ident please?
Post by: chrissyboi on August 21, 2019, 12:03:28 AM

Hi, I bought a bunch of obscure salvias from S America a few years back and I thought all had perished but this beauty  caught my eye in the “probably dead  but I'll keep watering anyway”section. I think it’s a salvia although the leaves have no small. Help?

I have no idea.
Have you considered that it might be a type of Stachys?
cheers

I think it's some kind of Colquhounia

I could do with a tea towel of that poster, it would certainly brighten up washing up. ;)
