Common name meadow sage Family lamiaceae Life cycle perennial (Z3-10) Flowers blue-purple Size 3' Light sun-part shade From seed easy, germinates at room temperature Flowers first year from seed sown indoors early. detailed seed-starting info below Fairly typical sage, with blue flowers on upright, somewhat lax stems. Ours have large, deep green, crinkly basal leaves. That makes me question the identity of this plant (received by me as seed of "Salvia haematodes"), since I understand there should be red veins on gray-green leaves for this variety. Salvias will always be hard for me to keep straight...

In our garden, this plant grows in the following areas: orchard nursery area
