Salvia: Looking at the intoxicating beauty can be hallucinogenic

9/5/12

There are many kinds of salvia; one of them is salvia divinorum, ingestion or smoking of which is hallucinogenic (do not let Aldous Huxley know). 

Ours is probably salvia scarlet sage.  Looking at its intoxicating beauty may be hallucinogenic.  “Beauty is worse than wine, it intoxicates both the holder and beholder.”—by Aldous Huxley

Some of the salvias are tall, up to Katy's waist.  These photos were taken in the period between 6/22/12 and 9/5/12.
