Flower from the SW.

[flowerbug]

All I can say is it looks like a bush with purple flowers and it is in the SW.

Any hints? And yes, sorry it's not the best picture but can't get a better one.

Native to North America?

Could it be a sage (Salvia)?

We need to keep looking.

That wasn’t a complete answer.

Lots of sages and thinking of New Riders of the Purple Sage and the Zane Grey book doesn’t fill the bill.

not having a better picture and not having seen the plant myself i think getting them in the ballpark where they can narrow it down if they want is good enough. they'll forgive me...
