'''''Salvia lyrata''''' ('''Lyre-leafed Sage'''), is a species of [[Salvia|sage]] native to the eastern [[United States]], from [[Connecticut]] west to [[Kansas]], and south to [[Florida]] and [[Texas]].

<!--  This section should be renamed Cultivars if it appears on a page for a species (rather than genus), or perhaps Varieties if there is a mix of cultivars, species, hybrids, etc    -->

It is a [[herbaceous]] [[perennial plant]] with low growing leaves and flowering stems growing to 50 cm tall. The [[leaf|leaves]] are arranged in a basal rosette of large leaves, and smaller leaves in opposite pairs on the erect flowering stem. The basal leaves are up to 15 cm long and 5 cm broad, with several lobes, some approximating to the shape of a [[lyre]], from which the species is named. The [[flower]]s are pale blue, up to 25 mm long. The species is often a lawn weed that self seeds into lawns and is tolerant of being mowed.
