First Summer 2020
What caught my attention to this sage (apart from the color), are the leaves.
Very aromatic dark green leaves.
The scent of leaves and the fact that that salvia itself tends look like trailing plants.
Well...I planted in terracotta pot and and all plant died. I didn't want to give up and I cut it from the base and placed it under a tree (not too shady).
It regenerated, grew and bloomed so fast, I am very impressed with it.
