that is simple. in the right lower corner of the comment is a red ex, press that sign, and it will be deleted at once
Looking closer from another phone showed me I'm absolutely wrong! Definitely lupine! I wish I knew how to remove a comment.
The whorled leaf structure gives it away as lupine and not sage. http://www.rickcallahanphotography.com/images/3_pink_lupine.jpg Some lupines are weedy...perhaps a non-native? ~Jason
This is the area that purple sage are common. Although from the poor resolution it appears like a lupine's flower structure. Lupine aren't found growing naturally ( looking like the picture) in the area!
That is certainly Lupine (Lupinus spp.). Can't pick out the species from the photo.
