Russian Sage

Creating a wonderful scrim of gray and amethyst, Russian sage bursts forth in late summer or early autumn, rising 3 to 5 feet tall. It's an excellent companion to roses putting forth a final burst of bloom, to ornamental grasses, or to tall sedums. As long as it has good drainage, it is extremely low-maintenance.
