Salvia Argentea – Silver Sage

Salvia Argentea – Silver Sage

This is a short lived perennial plant, often grown only for its dramatic woolly foliage, which flowers to about 80cm. Wonderful, large, woolly leaves in spring, followed by spires of purple-tipped white flowers.

This is an eye-catching plant in spring when the new leaves have an especially luxuriant, soft, silvery appearance. It is evergreen in Karin’s Garden and the leaves are effective at suppressing weeds.
