Description:

24” x 24-30” wide, (cutting propagated). Turn up the heat in your xeriscape with this exclusive High Country Gardens introduction. ‘Blue Flame’ is a selection of the xeric sub-shrub Giant Purple Sage, chosen for its huge, brightly colored 10”+ long flowering spikes. Like a gas flame, the long tubular blue flowers poke through the rose-pink bracts attracting hummingbirds from the entire neighborhood.

To help support the huge flower spikes, it’s helpful to pinch back the tips of the new shoots in mid-spring to thicken up the plant. This beauty likes full sun, good air circulation and fast draining soil conditions. Catalog and internet sales only.

Zones 5-9.
Not recommended for fall planting in zones 5-6
