Azure Blue Sage

Salvia

 azurea

Azure Blue Sage (Salvia azurea) is named for its beautiful blue flowers. However, it is not uncommon to see plants with white flowers. In fact, I believe the first Azure Blue Sage that I saw had white flowers which made it harder to figure out which plant species it was. Once I saw the square stem, I was sure it was in the mint family (LAMIACEAE) and it didn’t take long to find images of the plant with the more common azure flowers.
