Description:

48” x 36” wide (seed propagated) This low-care evergreen native shrub is renowned for its aromatic silver leaves. Big Sage develops a twisted shaggy trunk and branches as it matures, making it a striking accent plant in rock gardens or against walls and fences. A slow to moderate grower, avoid continued watering, especially with a drip system, after it is established to prevent root rot. This is a very xeric plant!
