Mealy Cup Sage, Duelberg Sage, 'Henry Duelberg' Salvia (Salvia farinacea, 'Henry Duelberg')

I planted this Mealy Cup Sage (Salvia farinacea) 'Henry Duelberg' last summer and it was a bit straggly looking because it never sent up many shoots. The roots were established this winter and the plant is sprouting many stems in the middle of March. So if you plant new 'Henry Duelberg' transplants do not despair that first year if they are not very full. After the roots are established, they obviously become fuller.
