Lowry’s Peach Sage

Outstanding ornamentals from Mexico and Texas with small, fruit-scented leaves and wonderful bright coloured flowers. Called autumn sage because the hot days and cool nights of early fall bring on a glorious spurt of autumn flowers to cap off a continuous display that begins in June. The aromatic leaves are used as a seasoning in Mexico, and the edible nectar-filled flowers are excellent in salads, even adding to the ‘crunch’! Magnet for hummingbirds. Does well in full or half sun. Orange-peach flowers, 2.5cm/1in. Zone 9-10.
