Hummingbird or Pitcher Sage |
The extravagant leaves of this small clumping sage emit a perfectly sweet fragrance, which attracts hummingbirds. In the spring, the red-pink flowering spikes become a deep fuchsia. It is a great plant for dry shade but can grow in full to part sun also. It grows to 1'-2' tall and is drought and cold tolerant once it's established.
