Purple Sage (Salvia leucophylla), also referred to as San Luis Purple Sage or Gray Sage, is Southern California native we have begun domesticating on our farm. A proud shrub that’s useful for xeriscaping (low irrigating landscaping) – it can encompass a six to 10 square foot area by its third year. Silver grey leaves and prodigious flower plumes – showier than any sage we offer in our catalog – make a nice accent for flower bouquets and can even be used decoratively in their dried seed pod stage. The entire plant has a soft, pine-mint scent that is detectable anywhere it grows. First year foliage; second year flowers. Plants are perennial and require full sun. Seeds are certified organic. At Plant Good Seed, we are in the business of life. All our seeds are germination tested for viability to ensure you have a high quality growing experience.
