Hi folks. I've had this in my garden for 15 years or so and I really appreciate it.
I don't know what it's name is. I'm sure it's a salvia, but salvias are not my strength.
Is this a useful picture? Shall I go broader?

What type of flowers does it put out? The long ones with flowers that sprout along the side or the tube like flowers?

I'm sorry, but I cannot remember it ever putting out a memorable flower. But, I have
not been paying attention.
