Common sage is used as both a culinary herb and an ornamental. It has lovely silver foliage and lavender flowers with age. Offer it full sun and well-drained soil. It can adapt to a hot, dry location. We also offer ornamental types such as Golden sage which has yellow leaves and sometimes Tri-Color that has variegated purple, silver, and white leaves. Neither are as hardy as common sage so they should be treated as beautiful accents for annual combination planters.
Varieties:
- Common / Garden Sage (Zone 5)
- Icterina Variegated Gold (annual)
- Tricolor (annual)
