The New Book of Salvias

Sages for Every Garden
by Betsy Clebsch, drawings by Carol D. Barner

This expanded edition of Betsy Clebsch’s first book on salvias covers approximately 150 beautiful, garden-worthy species and significant hybrids. Alphabetical botanical descriptions, information on habit, blooming cycle, and recommended companion plants are complemented by delightful historical tidbits of discovery and usage. In her ardent pursuit of salvias, Clebsch has explored the wild to collect plants and seeds to test in her California garden. The resulting wealth of cultural information in The New Book of Salvias ensures that our gardens will not only be exquisitely aromatic but also wonderfully picturesque.

“If you love salvias, this is the book for you.” –The Seattle Times
