    Sage! My wife planted it many years back and she forgot what it was. We found it poking out in our yard recently and repotted it and now it's flowering. Thank you very much!

    Not quite the same as the sage used for cooking....

    Quote wiki...."Perovskia atriplicifolia
    ...commonly called Russian sage, is a flowering herbaceous perennial plant and subshrub. Although not a member of Salvia, the genus of other plants commonly called sage, it is closely related to them"
