(A) to 2′. Annual Clary. Mediterranean. Upright, spikes of flowers with colourful bracts in dense verticillasters rise above the pale green, rugose, oblong leaves. These colourful bracts are the main show; they have prominent dark venation and almost hide the tiny two-lipped flowers, which are cream-colored, with the upper lip tinged with violet-blue, echoing the bract colour. Stunning en masse. Sun. 4 & T2
