About

The drought-tolerant Texas Sage has a dense, bushy growth that forms a rounded shape. The fuzzy texture of its small, narrow leaves gives them a silver-grey appearance, adding interest and texture to the landscape even when the plant is not in bloom. When in bloom, its vibrant, tubular-shaped purple flowers blanket the plant, creating a stunning spectacle and filling the air with a delightful fragrance. Texas Sage is highly valued for its low maintenance requirements and adaptability, flourishing in various soil types, from sandy to clay, and withstanding extreme heat, drought and even cold temperatures.
