Salvia Species, Creeping Sage, Southern River Sage

This blue River Sage is so lovely to have in your summer garden. It attracts bees, especially Bumble bees.
I was blessed with havi...Read Moreng three separate clumps of it in my front garden - because the birds planted it.
Although not a nusance at all, its underground root system travels, and you just need to pull out any new shoots where you don't want them to be growing. Thus the word "creeping"
is used in the desciption above.
At the end of summer flowering I used to prune it right back as the stalks get quite woody looking. It is a very hardy plant.
