It was first described by William Aiton in 1789. It grows {{convert|6|ft|m|abbr=on}} tall in its native habitat, less in cultivation, with unusual (for the Salvia family) round stems. The aromatic gray-green leathery leaves are small ({{convert|.5|in|cm|abbr=on}}) and tightly packed. The short {{convert|2|in|cm|abbr=on}} inflorescence is tightly packed with whorls of {{convert|1|in|cm|abbr=on}} flowers that range in color from pale blue to light lavender. As the calyces age they expand and turn pink, complimenting the color of the flowers.[1] Notes1. ^{{cite book|last1=Clebsch|first1=Betsy|last2=Barner|first2=Carol D.|title=The New Book of Salvias|publisher=Timber Press|date=2003|page=95|isbn=978-0-88192-560-9|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=NM0iwB8GrQYC&pg=PA95}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q6403959}}{{Lamiaceae-stub}} 2 : Salvia|Flora of the Cape Provinces |
