.... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... Q. I seem to remember you having taught us what this particular bush is but for the life of me, I can’t remember what it’s called … monsoon plant? The couple next door have a grey-green shrub growing in their side yard that is now covered with lovely light purple flowers. Would you please remind me which shrub this might be? – C.R., Albuquerque A. Yes, you are correct in thinking I’ve written about this surprise plant before. Texas sage (Leucophyllum frutescens) is probably the shrub you’re now noticing, because with the advent of our annual monsoon season, the Texas sage is making its yearly show.
