Salvia wardii

Salvia wardii is a perennial plant that is native to Tibet, found growing in alpine grasslands and thickets at 3,600 to 4,500 m (11,800 to 14,800 ft) elevation. It grows 50 to 75 cm (20 to 30 in) high, on strong stems that are glandular and hairy, forming into a thick spreading plant. It has many basal leaves that are ovate to subhastate, 7 to 16 cm (2.8 to 6.3 in) long and 3.5 to 8 cm (1.4 to 3.1 in) wide. The upper leaf is slightly ridged with short hairs, the underside has red glandular hairs, especially dense on the veins.

gollark: What's that using, then?
gollark: If you're talking about contact tracing, there was a proposal for how to do it in a decent privacy-preserving way.
gollark: You seemed to be suggesting that open source was somehow worse than closed source software for security, which I disagree with.
gollark: <@!707673569802584106> Basically everything uses open source software in some form. If your security is compromised by people knowing how some component of your application works, it is not very secure in the first place.
gollark: <@183773411078569984> Proprietary software can suffer from the whole trusting trust thing exactly as much as open source software.
