Russian Sage Denim N Lace #1

This more upright variety forms a dense mound of fragrant gray-green leaves, on strong stems; multiple spikes of lavender-blue flowers from mid-summer until fall; excellent for the garden or mixed containers. This is a relatively low maintenance plant, and is best cut back to the ground in late winter before active growth resumes. It is a good choice for attracting butterflies to your yard, but is not particularly attractive to deer who tend to leave it alone in favor of tastier treats. It has no significant negative characteristics..
