Salvia farinacea Victoria Blue. Garden centers carry seedlings in spring.

Thanks so much. Since it does so well in my area, I'd like to try growing it.

I appreciate the response.

You're welcome. I grow them every year. I hang the flowers upside down to dry. The color lasts all year and beyond, and looks nice in little vases. Very pretty together with dried gomphrena (easy from seed). Pick them before they pass peak.
