Himalayan Cloud Sage
Salvia nubicola
Originating at high elevations where clouds tend to gather, these airy, pale yellow blooms with light maroon accents rise on stems of pistachio green. Said to be used in traditional Tibetan medicine, its fragrance and appearance may induce daydreaming. This sweet delicate plant is a real charmer and looks like it belongs in a cottage garden. It’s relatively new for us, and we love it! Deer resistant.
