Herb 'White Sage'

Salvia officinalis — White Sage
White Sage is a hardy perennial shrub with silvery, aromatic leaves long valued for both culinary and traditional uses. Its flavour is earthy and savoury, making it a classic seasoning for roasted dishes, stuffings, and teas. Small lavender-blue flowers rise above the foliage in summer, attracting bees and other pollinators. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, sage is drought-tolerant once established and adds both structure and fragrance to the garden.
