Salvia farinacae Seeds

Common Names: Blue Sage, Blue Bedder and Mealycup Sage

Salvia farinacea or Blue Sage as it is commonly known is an herbaceous perennial native to Mexico and parts of the United States. They flower for a long period, do well in hot, dry conditions and they provide a pleasant fragrance. Violet-blue spikes rest on a compact plant of typically narrow salvia-like leaves; however, the shiny leaves are what set this species apart from most other Salvia, which bear velvety-dull leaves. Blue Sage can be used for massing, borders, containers, accents and cut flowers. It is also used extensively in dried arrangements because the flowers dry to a deep blue. This plant requires full or part-sun and will grow to 45cm or more with good soil. This plant will attract butterflies and hummingbirds.
