Salvia sclarea turkestanica (Salvia sclarea turkestanica.)

Was discussing with Dotty Daisy that I made potpourri with this plant. These bracts are 3 days old and don't seem to have a scent yet.

I love this plant, unfortunately it's a big-un.

Big is a plus at times at least it can be seen easy .

Now if you touch the plant, it's really aromatic, delightful.

And yours are in rather a dim area. It's the sun that makes the juices flow.
