Silver sage (Salvia argentea) is a clump-forming biennial or short-lived perennial that is so worth it for the large, wooly, silver foliage. In its second year it produces branched flowering stems with large, white, hooked sage flowers. Plants may reseed to continue your population. Though silver sage is a biennial it is beautiful and novel and well worth growing. Great for kids.
