Source History
Collected
25 September 1907.
Shandong Sheng, China
Locality: Lungtung [This may be a location in eastern Jinan, Shandong province; it is certainly spelled differently today, and the exact modern place name is uncertain. -SBL]
Habitat: Unknown source
Comment: COLLECTOR'S NUMBER: 775A; MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION ABOUT WILD COLLECTION: A sage which may prove to be a good plant for the arid Southwestern States. It is able to resist alkali remarkably well. The Chinese use it here and there for basketry manufacture, taking the annual shoots for this purpose. It has pretty blue flowers and is diligently visited by all kinds of bees, and as such might be grown in gardens as a semi-ornamental shrub and as a honey plant. When left alone, grows 20 feet tall.;
