Overview

The Berggarten Sage (Salvia officinalis 'Berggarten') is a culinary evergreen perennial known for its attractive, broad, silvery-gray leaves. It grows compactly at about 1-2 feet high and wide. This hardy sage variant thrives in zones 5-8, preferring well-drained soil and full sun exposure. Its lavender-blue flowers seldom bloom, accenting foliage-heavy gardens. Ideal for borders, herb gardens, or as a fragrant ground cover. Resist overwatering.
