A hot, dry slope can be a death sentence for a plant. Think of a hot place lizards or coyotes won't go, then think even hotter than that.....now you have an idea of where Black Sage works beautifully. 'Terra Seca' steps it up a notch, with dense, lush leaves that smother the ground and create a groundcover that laughs at heat and drought. Once a month water during the Summer? No problem! Full Sun in Ojai.....No problem! Part Shade in Oxnard in clay soil.....Um.....Heck yes, still no problem! Late Spring brings nice white-light purple flowers that attract bees and butterflies. 'Terra Seca' grows quickly to 18-30 inches tall and 6-10 ft. wide, and is a natural at growing over large boulders, cascading over walls and generally making native plants look awesome and easy. Use on slopes with our local Yucca (Our Lord's Candle) and Ashyleaf Buckwheat for a clean look that keeps local wildlife happy. Smells delicious!
