Lowery's Legacy Cenizo
Leucophyllum langmaniae
'Lyaa's Legacy' was selected out for its profuse and frequent flower
displays. It grows slowly to about 5 feet tall and wide, with a dense,
rounded form. Its sage green foliage is a wonderful backdrop for the lavender
flowers. Compared to most selections of Texas sage, it is not as dependent
on changes in relative hunidity for flowering and can bloom more often
during the course of the summer than other selections.
