Salvia reptans - Kruipsalie

(Kruipsalie) From the spectacular plant-rich East Cape, this creeping Salvia is a fine ground cover or edging plant. It blooms for us 10 months a year, making a light purple cloud in the garden.

This plant has a plethora of medicinal uses throughout its African habitat: for stomach aches, diarrhea, as a disinfectant rinse and even as a smudge to cleanse a home.

As many of the African Salvias, this one is unusual and deserves wider use.
