High Mowing Organic Sage Seeds

Gray-green leaves are soft and aromatic, imparting a moreish flavor to soups, stews, gravies and stuffing. A flowering perennial and staple of the herb garden, plants are woody and strong, sending up beautiful purple flowers that attract pollinators. Woody stems and flowers can be dried for floral arrangements. Can be cut back in fall for bountiful regrowth in spring.

  • 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.
