Salvia officinalis ‘Grower’s Friend’

Salvia officinalis is the common sage of the culinary world and one of the most widely used herbs in western cuisine likely owing to the fact that it hails from the Mediterranean from where many great cuisines were born. It also has ornamental qualities growing as a small, evergreen, mounding shrub up to two feet tall and wide with greenish-grey foliage. ‘Grower’s Friend’ is a special culinary sage that does not flower. The plant’s energy remains focused on foliage production. All the better for your culinary pursuits! Prune as needed in the spring to retain a compact shape.
