"These plants arrived in good condition and were planted by a professional landscape service and they are about 10 months in the ground at this moment. They are still alive but are very small and haven't leafed out at all this summer. I am concerned that they will not make it through another winter. Most everything else that was planted along with it is growing and establishing itself in the garden, so I am unsure at the moment if I would or wouldn't recommend, however bc of High Country's customer service policy, I am selecting yes, as they are very easy to work with and are an excellent online garden supply company."
"I have tried 5 different kinds of Russian sage and this is the only one that stays really blue in the brutally hot and sunny Texas climate. All others fade and barely look blue. Lacey blue looks really blue until it freezes out. It's beautiful."
"Even with the drought that we faced this year, the product was hardy and has thrived."
"This was my first time ordering from HCG ~ but I am already placing another order! I ordered 2 each of 5 different plants ~ and as you can see from the photo, they arrived healthy and are thriving! I can hardly wait to plant them ~ I know they will be stellar performers! Thank you HCG!!"
"I am creating a natural border"
"I bought this last year. It grew absolutely beautifully this year! My favorite plant by far. Long bloom, beautiful color, covered with pollinators, literally no maintenance. Survived my curbside garden in the blazing full sun. Highly recommend!!"
"I planted this dwarf Russian Sage in a raised bed by my vegetable garden. I do supplement water, as we sometimes go months without rain. It bloomed really well last year and is looking great and much bigger this year. (I'd guess about 20"" wide. ) I'm looking forward to the blooms in the next month or so."
"We got about 4 of these last spring. They were small at first and they needed watering and care the first year. After winter was over We trimmed off the tops (a little too short. oops) but they are twice as big now as they were at the peak of last year and it still isn't summer yet. We love them, they attracted so many of our neighbors bees and their dusty purple was a nice pop of color against our washed out house paint. We did tend to over water them at the beginning of this spring. When my sister told me to lay off the watering, I stopped for about a week and they started growing like crazy. So they can grow but very slowly if you over water them as well, just FYI. I water them about 1 time a week or whenever the tops seem a little droopy"
"This plant has done super well here in NE! It has so many blooms the stalks can't hold upright! I thought it had died over the winter but lo and behold it just took off this spring. So glad I didn't dig it up and just waited. Wish ALL my plants did this well."
"Hope it is as hardy as the standard size russian sage"
