These salvias were photographed this past January in the Mojave National Preserve. Deep winter there, nothing is in bloom but you may see the remains of the inflorescense on S. mohavensis. You can occasionally find them inhabiting the same creek bed, platonically intertwined...at least I think because I searched high and wide for hybrids...and found none...that survived anyway.
Both dorrii specimens photoed individually are unusual forms, the tree like one next to Auggie has more usual leaf arrangement while the other three closer-ups are of a single bush that I found with a less common leaf arrangement and one that I had never seen before.
Hoping to find at least the dorrii in bloom at the end of this month when I visit these same specimens. All were found near Mexican Water Spring just north of the Providence Mountains.
