There's
no doubt about sage's
popularity. Unfortunately for many enthusiasts, most varieties require
a great deal of space. That's why
the new Santa Barbara Dwarf Mexican Sage (Salvia leucantha) is bound
to be an instant hit.
Blooming with the same vigor and
stunning display of violet flowers from late spring to fall as its
taller, rangier cousins, this dwarf variety maintains a dense, compact
shape, growing to roughly three feet tall. It's also drought tolerant,
making it ideal for hot, sunny locations. These same qualities make
it a great option for those who like to grow perennials in containers.
The foliage is of the same lush gray-green, fragrant character as
the full-sized sages so popular in this area.
