Description
48" tall x 48" wide (cutting propagated). Perovskia atriplicifolia 'Blue Spire' (Russian Sage), a European cultivar, is a vigorous, well-shaped grower with attractive dark-blue flower spikes. Russian Sage has taken the gardening world by storm, rising from obscurity to enormous popularity in the past decade. Along the way, however, a number of different forms of the plant were introduced, resulting in a variety of good and not-so-good Russian Sage plants. Good for Firescaping.

Excellent quality - growing well
"These plants arrived in great condition! They are growing well and don't require much water. Excited to see how they look as the summer progresses."
6999 Navajo Road
"I love Russian Sages, they take little care to look amazing. These are a little smaller than I expected but hopefully they will grow quickly."
Perfect shape!
"My plant arrived in great condition. It is green, healthy, and took planting well."
Amazing!
"I planted a row of these along a fence in a hot, dry area that gets a lot of sun and not much water. They have thrived and look amazing."
Pollinator Paradise!
"I added this plant to my garden in spring of 2021 and it has done amazing! So well that I planted 3 more this past fall. Every time I walk by the plant is just humming with bees and insects. And the smell is just amazing! The extended bloom makes sure you always have color in your garden. Once it was established it has done really well in our hot and dry summers here in the west. I couldn't recommend this plant enough if you are looking to fill in some larger spaces!"
Slow Starter to Showstopper
"I've planted Blue Spires from HCG multiple times over 3 years. The starts ship small and stay small for their first season but they come back with everything they got the next season. BIG impact, just not immediate. Easiest plants in my garden. Bees love these."
I am going to purchase these plants again nest spring
"These plants are growing very good for the most part. There are 3 that are very slow to get growing but they are still alive."
Hardy and flowering
"My plant went through several days of freezing spring weather. It is now 18"" tall with many flowers."
Successful Summer!
"These little plants have grown so very, very well! They are blooming like crazy even in this hotter than normal summer!"
No Rush for these Russians
"I had hopes that these 5 Russian Sage plants would become attractive anchors to a newly dug bed. They are no bigger today than they were when planted 3 months ago. Disappointed."
