This is growing a few blocks away, suburb west of Chicago. It is a very woody shrub. The bumblebees loved it, there were very many of them. It is very fragrant.   |

| I was able to get identification with The Victorian Salvia Study Group in Australia. Teucrium fruticans, native to the Mediterranean and introduced to California. (From their website) http://salvias.org.au/ If anyone has Salvias in their garden they don't know the name of or plants they can't identify, please take a photo and email it to [admin removed email]. I can help you. |

| Here is our database entry for Shrubby Germander (Teucrium fruticans) I moved your thread to the Plant ID forum where many members help with all kinds of ID's. I also removed the email, never a good idea to post an email address in any public forum. My gardening Blog! Handmade quilts, new & vintage fabrics in my Etsy store.

| It was hard to tell as there are no closeups of the blooms but I do believe you are correct. W don't have many images of a gray cultivar other than this one Bluebeard (Caryopteris x clandonensis Sterling Silver®) but the images show that the leaf shape and also flower heads as a match. The minimum zone makes more sense too. I would say placing the images it in the generic entry would be appropriate. Bluebeards (Caryopteris) My gardening Blog!
