This is a listing and documenting of species and forms of S. involucrata and karwinskii,  that we are aware of,  followed by the many crosses:

Similar Species to be included are S. puberula and S.wagneriana

S. involucrata and S. karwinskii are the parents for the majority of these crosses.

Both S. involucrata and S. karwinskii are tall growing Salvias from South America, both growing extremely well here in Melbourne.

S. puberula and S. wagneriana are not included under the involucrata name as these were probably named by a different person at a different time, but are often mistaken for type of S. involucrata

  • Salvia involucrata (the species) – very tall up to 4mH, winter flowering, arching branches with  very long inflorescence (up to 30cm)
