Salvia greggii 'Raspberry'
Autumn Sage (Salvia greggii) is delightful as a small, ornamental, flowering shrub in a perennial bed or as a low hedge. Its aromatic foliage quickens the senses, and its flowers will surely draw hummingbirds. This soft, mounding shrub, normally 2-3 ft. tall, grows small, minty, aromatic green leaves that are evergreen in warmer climates. This variation grows purple-pink flowers borne on racemes from spring to frost.
It is disease—and insect-free, deer-resistant, and drought-tolerant, and once established, it should not be fertilized.
