Calif_Sue said:I looked on Robin's Salvias and found that image under Salvia dolichantha, which is listed as a synonym here. Both images in the database seem to match other online images.

Note that dirtdorphins' plant has flowers of a completely different character than the other photo in the database. They are not the same species.

Dirtdorphins' plant resembles Salvia pratensis or something very like it:

But neither of the photos is the Texas species. Where the nomenclatural error arises between S. whitehousei and S. dolichantha, I don't know, needless to say.
