| Autumn
Sages
(Salvia greggii)
Outstanding ornamentals from Mexico and Texas with
small, fruit-scented leaves and wonderful bright coloured
flowers. Called autumn sage because early fall brings
on a glorious spurt of autumn flowers to cap off a
continuous display that begins in June. 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. Ht. 75-100cm/30-40in. |
