Clary Sage is big on impact. From bud to bloom, the show will endure for up to five months. The buds resemble hops, and the bracts are shades of purple, pink and blue with white flowers. It is the bracts that provide the bulk of the show.
The rough, aromatic leaves are mid green and grow to around 23cm long.
Grow Clary Sage in a sunny location in well drained soil. Salvias are dry tolerant once established and look wonderful in beds, borders or dry gardens. They have a vigorous growth and are easy care.
Dead head spent flowers on Salvias, after the first flush to encourage re-bloom.
This Saliva is not just ornamental. It can be used to flavour dishes. It is also used by the perfume industry for its sclareol resin.
