Death Valley sage (Salvia funerea), is a spiny-leaved shrub found in washes and limestone canyon walls in the Death Valley region of California. Also known as funeral sage, it grows to approximately 60 cm in length, but can reach one meter when draping on the walls of canyons. The flowers are blue or violet in color, with the plant appearing white-woolly.
