One of our favorite native plants, this great Sage is loved for so many reasons. Brush against its leaves to reveal a sweet aroma, which many people think is the Sweetest of all California Sages. A very compact (3 1/2 ft. high x 4 ft. wide) and fast Sage with nice reddish stems, tight growth and beautiful purple-blue flowers from May-July ++. Loves Hot Sun and good drainage; Has worked well for us in Dry Clay soil. Needs 3 or 4 deep waterings from June-October to look its best - that's it! Low maintenance, showy and great in a wildlife garden......No wonder it's one of the few natives on the U.C, Davis Arbortetum All Star List (Ask us about this great program!). Thanks to our friends at Cal Flora Nursery for 're-introducing' this outstanding native.
