Sticky sage (Salvia glutinosa). This is not a native plant to Quebec, but seems to have established itself 'wild" in one very small patch of ground here, on the site of an old mansion that burned down in the 1940s. I imagine these are the descendants of plants from the garden of the mansion that have survived untended for over seventy years. It has a very strong, quite pleasant, citrus perfume.

I think this is an invasive species of Salvia, or sage –possibly “sticky sage” or Salvia glutinosa. It was growing wild under pine trees in Park St Bruno, about 15 miles south of Montreal. If it is indeed Salvia glutinosa it is a long way from home, as it is native to West Asia and Central Europe, not Canada.
