Salvia caespitosa species or not?
This is a mystery plant that I can't find using only Google.
Grown from seed in 2010 it grew into a 30 cm multistem shrub and bloomed quite differently than the photo of Salvia caespitosa in NARGS Photos. It smells like Salvia and appears to have leaves of Salvia. In the second photo attached there are a few flowers left for identification, hopefully.
I've Googled it and found a similar looking plant with it's name captioned at Smith College Botanical Garden. http://www.smith.edu/gardens/bgilib/web/imageFrameset.php?latin_name=Sal...
Also in a google search I believe there is a Salvia found in Turkey (Anatolia) that may be this species. I'd like to offer seed to the seed exchange but would like to do so knowing what I'm donating.
Hope someone has come across this version of Salvia before and can shed some light!
