Scutellaria species
« on: February 19, 2013, 06:52:44 PM »
I got seeds from this plant named as S. salviifolia. Well, it's obviously not, but I still want to know the name.
The plant is about 40-50 cm high and half of my  plants survived my zone 6 winter.* 1scutellaria salviifolia5.jpg (69.59 kB. 450x337 - viewed 787 times.)383403-2

Jonna,

Photos are not clear enough but it seems to be Scutellaria altissima.
Tivon, in the lower Galilee, north Israel.

Oron,
Thank you for your reply, but I think it's not S. altissima. I have that one too in my garden and it's more purple, the NOID is more violet, although the hight is almost the same.

I'm no specialist of this genus, but it looks a lot like what I have under the name Scutellaria baikalensis...

Zephirine, thank you for your reply, but the flowers of my Scutellaria are more pale.
The only additional info I have is that only one plant out of 5  survived in my zone 6. Will have to wait if that one returns this year, because we had a few spring days and suddenly the temps went down to -15°C , hardly without a snow cover.

I also got a suggestion it should be S. latiliflora, but also that one is not as pale as mine.
Well, I got seeds of S. latiliflora and winter sowed them, so maybe I can compare it this year.

Anyway, all suggestions are welcome.

Well I am not a specialist either, but I have seen one very similar labelled as Scutellaria heldreichii, could it be that I wonder.

Thank you for your reply Brian, but I can't find a hit on googling Scutellaria heldreichii.
Do you have a link or picture?
