Sage 'Black and Blue' is a large, robust, flowering machine for bigger space and hummingbird magnet.
Originates in Brazil, Paraguay and northern Argentina, but quickly became popular in North America.
Shrarp color combination of brilliant sky blue flowers with nearly black calyxes. Black stems, up to 4' tall and 3-4' wide, shrubby looking plant.
This is tender perennial, hardy to in zones 7, 8, 9, but our experience from zone 6a/6b is, that it will survive fine, if it's in sheltered warmer position - right at the house at south facing wall or with some winter protection. Drained soils will help too. Can be grown as annual too.
Sage 'Black and Blue' requires full sun to half shade, average to moist soil and flowers from mid-summer into fall in. Dead heading keeps it flowering in full force. Hummingbirds, especially, and butterflies won’t leave it alone.
When happy, it forms spreading underground rhizomes and can cover a lot of space in warmer gardens. Use it at the back of your garden or as a flowering hedge. Stunning with yellow Echinacea, Rudbeckia or other Salvia.
Easy to grow plant and great nectar source for hummingbirds.
Pot Size : square 3.5" x 5" deep pot
