Purple-tinged leaves and bluish purple flowers, lovely in containers.

About Sage

Used in poultry stuffing, sausage, egg dishes, breads, and vegetable dishes, especially squash. Spread the dried leaves among linens to discourage insects. Excellent as a potted summer herb; over-winter inside in a sunny window or under lights. Deer- and rabbit-resistant. Drought-tolerant. Perennial, but not reliable here.
