	~~Describe~~ the plant ~~here~~...		'''''Salvia candidissima''''' is a herbaceous perennial native throughout western Greece, and parts of Anatolia, Iraq, and Iran, generally between 2000-6500 feet elevation. Several small stems grow almost horizontally from the roots before bearing upright inflorescences. The plant reaches 3 ft in height and width in the wild. The light green leaves, 6 in long by 4 in wide, are covered with hairs on both sides and often have notches on the edges. The leaves become lighter in color as the weather gets hotter. The 8-12 inch inflorescences are branched, with 1 inch flowers in whorls that are creamy white and sometimes tipped with a yellow lip. ''Salvia candidissima'' is one of a group of seven salvias that are closely related, grow in the same habitat, and easily hybridize with each other, resulting in a great deal of variety in the species.<ref name="Clebsch">{{cite book\|last=Clebsch\|first=Betsy\|coauthors=Carol D.
