Sage, Jerusalem (Salvia hierosolymitana), packet of 30 seeds, Organic

Family:  Mint (Lamiaceae)

Hardy to Zones 7 to 12

(Jerusalem Sage, Royal Sage, Sacred Sage)  Please note that this is not the common yellow-flowered non-salvia, Latin name Phlomis fruticosa, which also goes by the common name “Jerusalem Sage.”)  Our Salvia hierosolymitana is a mounding perennial to 2 feet, native to Eastern Mediterranean basin.  Flowers wine-red, calyxes, bracts and stem also tinged in red.  The plant is inodorous although well-endowed with glandular hairs.  A plant for the serious sage aficionado, it is very rare to find in cultivation, and it is rare to find seed availability.
