Common Name: Russian Sage
Perovskia atriplicifolia
Also available: 'Crazy Blue' (shorter variety) and 'Denim 'n Lace'
Airy spikes of lavender-blue flowers top strong stems with small, finely dissected, silvery-green leaves. Its loose, open habit makes this perennial an effective filler in the back of the border.
