Salvia subgenus Perovskia is a group of species within the flowering plant genus Salvia, which prior 2017 were treated as the separate genus Perovskia.[2] Members of the group are native to southwestern and central Asia.[3][4] It includes the garden plant Russian sage (Salvia × floriferior).[5]

The subgenus and former genus are named after the Russian general V. A. Perovski (1794-1857).[6]

Species[7]
  1. Salvia abrotanoides (Kar.) Systma – Tibet, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan, western Himalayas of northern India
  2. Salvia bungei J.G.González, formerly Perovskia virgata Kudrjasch. – Tajikistan
  3. Salvia karelinii J.B.Walker, formerly Perovskia angustifolia Kudrjasch. – Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan
  4. Salvia klokovii J.B.Walker, formerly Perovskia linczevskii Kudrjasch. – Tajikistan
  5. Salvia kudrjaschevii (Gorschk. & Pjataeva) Systma – Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan
  6. Salvia pobedimovae J.G.González, formerly Perovskia botschantzevii Kovalevsk & Kochk. – Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Afghanistan
  7. Salvia scrophulariifolia (Bunge) B.T.Drew – Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan
  8. Salvia yangii B.T.Drew – Afghanistan, Pakistan, western Himalayas, Tibet, Xinjiang
Hybrids[7]
  1. Salvia × floriferior Dolat. & Ziel. – so-called "Russian sage", also referred to as Perovskia × hybrida (unplaced taxon) and its synonym Perovskia × superba in Europe and Russia: (S. abrotanoides × S. yangii)
  2. Perovskia × intermedia Lazkov – Kyrgyzstan: (S. abrotanoides × S. karelinii)

Cultivation

Plants in cultivation are almost all hybrids, including Salvia 'Blue Spire', which is very likely Salvia × floriferior, a naturally occurring hybrid between the entire-leaved Salvia yangii and Salvia abrotanoides. The leaves of this breed have long narrow teeth (i.e. are laciniate), unlike S. yangii which has entire leaves with shallow teeth.[5][8]
