Sage 100mm

Sage is a classic perennial herb treasured for its aromatic grey-green leaves and versatile culinary and medicinal uses. With its soft, velvety foliage and delicate mauve-purple flowers in spring and summer, sage adds beauty, texture, and fragrance to both herb gardens and ornamental borders.

This hardy Mediterranean herb thrives in sunny, well-drained positions and is highly drought-tolerant once established. It’s a staple in the kitchen for flavouring meats, stuffing, sauces, and roasted vegetables — and also attracts bees and beneficial insects when in bloom.

Tip: Regularly trim after flowering or harvest lightly throughout the season to promote fresh new growth and prevent the plant from becoming woody. For the best flavour, pick leaves in the morning once the dew has dried — that’s when their essential oils are at their peak.
