Blue Sage

Salvia farinacea

A vivid blue sage beloved by bumblebees.

Easy to start from seed, deer-resistant, and beloved by bumblebees, this North American native sage has it all. A tender perennial found primarily growing in prairie ecosystems, Blue Sage thrives nearly anywhere with full sun and well-draining soil. Grown as an annual in colder climates (above zone 7), it produces stunning periwinkle-blue flowers the first year and will remain in flower over a long period of time.

Then, prevent sprouts from damping off by being sure not to over-water them. When seedlings have 1-2 sets of leaves, thin to 1 per pot. Transplant outdoors when there are 1-2 sets of true leaves.
