| I bought this plant last year and can't remember what it is called. It is a perennial. Any ideas?

| It looks like a white Salvia pratensis to me. Swan Lake strain? |
|
| hi there, quite sure a Salvia, perhaps a well fed S. nemorosa. The uploaded photos didn't work, perhaps you could fix that. Probably one could find instructions searching the perennial forum. Bye, Lin |

Here's one of your pics:  |

| The picture isn't real clear, but could it be a white physotegia? Mine is sprawled like this one. Mary |
|
| No, it can't be a physostegia, because it has flowers like salvia pratensis. Flowers on physostegia don't look like salvia pratensis. |
|
| hmmm, must agree with growlove - it does look awfully like physostegia )although I am claiming duff eyesight) |
|
| This is the plant in question:
This is Physostegia virginiana :
This is Salvia pratensis:
They are too different to be confused in my opinion. |
