  1. Salvia columbariae (Chia Sage or Desert Chia), growing unusually isolated out of granitic gravel in a wash at Joshua Tree National Park, California in spring.

    This is not the plant from which the chia seeds that we consume nowadays are harvested (that's Chia hispanica), but the seeds were used in similar ways by Native Americans.

  16. Cherry, lilac, fuchsia, salvia, and snapdragon—maybe

    As I said a couple of weeks ago, we had an amazingly mild winter here in Seattle, a disturbingly mild winter. And spring. As predicted, the cherry tree exploded into puffs of pink. This was taken a few days ago:

    Blossom is about to start falling. In a week, the lawn will be carpet of pink flowers.

    Meanwhile, our two lilac trees (okay, one is ours, and one is the back neighbour’s, but it grows over our deck) are also getting in on the act. The one that grows over the kitchen deck is paler than the one that in the secret little north garden (not pictured) but it makes the deck smell heavenly.

    Also on the kitchen deck, we have tiny yellow flowers that come every year but whose name I can never remember. The geranium—an annual, not the perennial kind; it was not supposed to survive the winter—has grown huge, massive leaves reaching everywhere, but no sign of flower buds.

    However, we have our very first fuchsia buds swelling, which delights Kelley—she loves fuchsia (we have so much fuchsia, fuchsia of every kind, on the kitchen deck, the back deck, the front flower bed…)

    And two tiny flowers growing among our Hot Lips salvia—little red pinpricks among the green:

    And then there’s these, which I’m really, really hoping are snapdragons—I love snapdragons—but which I suppose could also be some kind of salvia:

    Meanwhile, on the back deck: nothing. Just a few green leaves growing here and there in pots. We’ll see what transpires…

  20. Salvia “Hot Lips” (Hot Lips Sage)

    This has become very popular around me here in Los Angeles. I now see it almost everywhere, but it was not that prevalent when we first planted ours. “Hot Lips” seems tolove our garden and climate, threatening to grow out of control without regular pruning.

  25. Aquí un bancal en el que hay #habas y #guisantes ya germinados, pero que los tapa la nieve.

    Sobresalen ramas y hojas de #Salvia en primer plano. #Borrajas un poco más adelante en el centro. Y #caléndulas en los laterales.

    A continuación pongo una foto de hace unos días para comparar.
