Russian Sage
Russian sage (Salvia yangii, formerly Perovskia atriplicifolia) is a striking perennial native to the Himalayas and western China. From July through October, it produces showy light blue, tubular flowers in branched panicles, adding a vibrant display to sunny gardens. Thriving in well-drained soils, Russian sage is drought-tolerant once established and performs best in full sun. It attracts pollinators and should be pruned nearly to the ground in late winter or early spring to ensure vigorous growth and abundant blooms.
