This plant can be herbaceous perennials or evergreen shrubs, with sage-like leaves and whorls of tubular, hooded flowers. They bloom around the months of March and June. The erect shoots bear grey-green ovate leaves. Foliage is silver in colour. Its height ranges from 60-120 cm. The plant can be used as a herb in cooking or brewed into tea. It tends to have a very strong flavour, so one or two leaves in a cup of boiling water or tea are usually sufficient.
