Variety incana, originally collected from the Cascade Mts. of Washington, is a distinct form of this wide spread western native shrub. After growing it alongside other forms of Salvia dorrii, chief horticulturist David Salman, found ssp. incana to be notable for its upright growth habit, large, pure silver leaves and sky-blue flowers held in silver calyxes. A late spring bloomer, the plant really stands out when planted with cacti and other green leafed xeric plants. Highly recommended for gardeners plagued by deer and other browsing animals.

"Sandy soil, in a hot rock garden. Has modest irrigation. Thrived right from the start with no special care or soil prep."
"Planted on steep hillside. 1 1/2 years and it is still small (my experience is that all new world salvias are slower establishing) but it is placed in a challenging spot: full sun, a steep hillside that has coal seams under it and a surface of decomposed coal & soil (clay) mixture. Of the two ordered one is growing (slowly) and one did not make it. HCG cheerfully allowed me a credit for a replacement."
"A tough attractive plant for the wild dry garden, but won't tolerate wet soil for long. I planted two and lost one during a rainy Spring. It was in clay soil that I had amended, but apparently not well enough. The survivor happened to be in a spot that had a lot of left over builder's sand. In a previous home with sandy soil I had no problems with Salvia dorriis. So, a great plant as long as the soil is gritty enough."
