Blue flowers accent aromatic grayish-white foliage in mid to late summer. Grows 3-4 ft. tall with a shrublike form. Terrific at the back of a garden border. Can really take the heat! Best in full sun.
Potted Plant.
Zones 4-9.

Comments: One of the best-loved natives. Loose flower clusters arise from the axils of the leaves and stem. This woodlander looks especially attractive planted next to ferns. The ferns can do double duty by filling in when the Virginia Bluebells dieback during the hot summer days.

Russian Sage
Reviewed By: Daron (Omaha, Nebraska)
I planted about eight of these plants last year and all but two failed. It could have been because I did not water them daily as I should have but I expected more. These were planted in a location that had partial shade which could have caused them to fail also.

Heat tolerant
Reviewed By: Deb (Norfolk, VA)
I ordered these from Gurney's this spring. My front yard is very hot & sunny and they took it like champs. Long lasting bloom (Oct 1 and they are just now beginning to fade). They don't need much watering and do almost as well in partial shade. Highly recommended if you need a reliable heat and dought tolerant plant.

Fabulous!
Reviewed By: Gretchen (Corning, NY)
I ordered three of these from Gurney's last spring, and three from another company. The three from Gurney's grew about two feet over the summer and bloomed continuously (the bees love them). The three from the 'other' company all died. Also, the ones from Gurney's were much larger when they first arrived.
