Salvia leucophylla

Meet the queen of California sages! Purple sage brings incredible silver-white foliage and stunning purple flower spikes that seem to glow in the garden. This native beauty is absolutely breathtaking.

The silvery-white woolly leaves provide stunning year-round color, while the tall spikes of purple flowers create incredible displays in late spring. The aromatic foliage releases wonderful fragrance when touched.

This drought-loving native is perfect for hot sunny spots, herb gardens, or anywhere you want dramatic foliage contrast. It's deer resistant and incredibly tough once established. Silver foliage meets purple perfection!
