Glenda Jones showed Salvia clevelandii "Betsy Clebsch", named in honor of our own member and Salvia expert, Betsy Clebsch. This cultivar was selected from a group of plants being grown at Rancho Santa Ana Botanical Garden and is distinguished by the variability of its flower color. Flowers on the same plant may be blue-lavender, white or bi-colored. It is somewhat smaller and more compact than the species, less than 3 ft. high and wide. The foliage is grayish-green, the leaves about 1 in. long. It blooms in May or June and continues through the summer and into fall, the flowers in whorls set in intervals along the stems. Glenda is to be congratulated on her success as this specie is considerably more difficult to grow than the regular Salvia clevelandii.
