Plant Highlights

This plant is a compact, upright species of sage and is common to the San Diego area. The shrub grows to a small 3 feet by 3 feet bush that is loved by hummingbirds, bees, and other pollinaters. The dark green foliage and reddish-purple stems are a good back-drop for the crystal blue flowers that emerge in spring to early summer. It requires a little summer water and is cold-tolerant, being found in coastal chaparral regions.
