Salvia cedrosensis
Also called Cedros Sage
Salvia cedrosensis, commonly known as the Cedros Sage or Cedros Island Sage, is an evergreen fruticose perennial plant that is endemic to the western (Pacific) coast of Baja California in Mexico, native to the Vizcaino peninsula and Cedros Island.
Michael Benedict, a botanist who also named the Cedros Island liveforever, selected a white-flowered cultivar known as 'Baja Blanca' which was introduced to nurseries by the Santa Barbara Botanical Garden. Like other members of the genus, this sage is prone to aphid infestations on new growth, but is otherwise quite insect and disease free. Excess watering, especially during summer, may lead to root rot. This plant is not tolerant of freezes.
