Hello, can somebody help me identify the tall purple, salvia looking plants? thank you very much beforehand!

Hi Kamila. Could it be Linaria purpurea?

I think you are right ladybird.

pitter-patter

Or Russian Sage? Maybe Petrovskia atriplicifolia Blue Spire?

Thank you for sharing your ideas with me! I will try planting both in my garden!

There's a pink version of Linaria too called Canon Went and it goes well with the usual purple variety.
They flower for months if you cut back the old spikes and one of the few tall plants that I don't need to stake.
They do self seed very freely and seedlings come up everywhere - a welcome weed

I think linaria too.  Perovskia has white/silvery stems and leaves (at least mine does).
