Salvia farinacea, the mealycup sage,[1] or mealy sage,[2] is a herbaceous perennial native to Nuevo León, Mexico and parts of the United States including Texas and Oklahoma.[3] 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 most other Salvia, which bear velvety-dull leaves.
