Design with this plant

Overview

Seer's Sage (Salvia divinorum) is a psychoactive perennial, thriving in shaded areas with high humidity, preferring the USDA Zones 9-11. Its striking, large oval leaves, spanning up to 4 inches, accompany hollow square stems on plants reaching 3 feet in height. Known for its serrated foliage and rare white blooms, it requires well-drained soil. Handle with care due to its hallucinogenic properties when ingested. Notably low-maintenance and deer-resistant.
