Lake Valley Broadleaf Sage Heirloom Seeds

Sage's flavor is bold and assertive and considered very valuable as a digestive aid to high-fat foods, such as pork, wild game, and cheese. Often paired with stuffing, it also livens up vegetables, potatoes, soups, and stews. This drought-tolerant plant also has edible, purple-blue flowers that attract pollinators, and the gray-green foliage provides an excellent contrast in the garden or containers.

Sowing Information:

  • Light: Full sun to part shade
  • When to Start Inside: 1 to 2 weeks after your average last frost date, when the soil temperature is at least 50°F.
  • When to Sow Outside: RECOMMENDED. 6 to 8 weeks before your average last frost date.
  • Seed Depth: ¼ inch
  • Seed Spacing: A group of 3 seeds every 12–18 inches

"Just wanted to give a shout-out to both Megan and Cole who planted a new tree for us. It was hot when they were planting but they took time to make sure the placement was perfect. They also were great in explaining the maintenance that will be needed. Very professional and super attitudes…..great employees!"
