Salvia leucantha
It will grow to about four feed. Mexican Sage requires full sun. this makes a perfect middle of the border flower. And, it is great for flower arranging. Perfect for zones 8 - 10. I love my Mexican Sage. Some questions from Emily's mailbox: Q: I would like to know if and how and when you prune Mexican sage? I live in zone 9 my plant is 2 yrs old. A: Mexican Sage can be pruned by the end of February or sooner. Trim down to about 6 inches. If new growth appears at the first signs of spring, and there is a warning for some cold nights, just cover . It should be OK. All that is growing now will only put stress on the plant and take away from dormant energies for the new growth. |
