Description
Russian Sage is a stunning perennial that thrives in Massachusetts gardens, offering airy spikes of lavender flowers from early summer through mid-fall. Russian Sage features silver-gray fragrant foliage that matures to a soft green, creating a beautiful contrast to its blooms. This resilient plant is excellent for mass plantings and garden borders where it brings color, texture, and pollinator activity.
Russian Sage is loved for its upright, spreading habit and fine, delicate texture that enhances any landscape. Best cut back in late winter, Russian Sage is also deer-resistant, making it a reliable choice for local gardens. Its drought tolerance and butterfly appeal make it a must-have for naturalized and woodland settings across Massachusetts.
