A "new" Salvia species has been collected from the wild in Northeastern Argentina by Prof. German Roitman (School of Agronomy, Univ. of Buenos Aires). Although it was cited for Argentinean flora, it has never been in cultivation before. Its name is yet to be confirmed but it might be Salvia nervosa. Pictures will be uploaded by Robin Middleton soon.

I hope you enjoy it.

Best Wishes to all the Salvia community!

You might want to check out this info at the New York Botanical Garden's online Herbarium

For an online herbarium image, try this site (THUMBNAIL GERADO, translated from Portugese):

Merry Christmas to all! I wonder what it looks like and if the hummingbirds use it?
