FREE: Jerusalem Sage tough and gorgeous 10 seeds

The listing, Jerusalem Sage tough and gorgeous 10 seeds has ended.

Jerusalem sage is a shrubby evergreen in USDA Zones 8-10. Plants typically die to the ground in winter in USDA Zones 5, 6 and 7, with roots usually surviving. It is best grown in organically rich, fertile, medium moisture, well-drained soils in full sun. Plants tolerate some dry soils. Stems may be cut back after flowering to promote additional bloom.
Noteworthy Characteristics
Native to the Mediterranean, Jerusalem sage is a pubescent, mounding, shrubby perennial that grows to 2-4’ tall. Plants perform best in USDA Zones 8-10 where they remain evergreen in winter. Wrinkled, ovate to lanceolate, gray-green leaves (to 5” long) of this mint family member have a sage-like appearance but no aroma or taste. Whorls of yellow flowers bloom in spherical clusters (verticillasters) along the upper half of stems and at the stem ends in summer. Additional flushes of bloom may occur throughout the remainder of the growing season if stems are promptly cut back after flowering.
Problems: No serious insect or disease problems.
Many gardeners propagate Jerusalem sage at home using a variety of methods, including seeds. Although the seeds germinate reliably, they sometimes take up to two months to sprout, so it is best to start them indoors two to three months before the last spring frost in colder climates. Auction is for 10 seeds.
