Description

This California native prostrate plant is 6"-12" high and 2'-3' wide, with bluish purple flowers that bloom in spring, held above rough, dark green, aromatic leaves. It grows very quickly forming colorful mounds. This sage attracts hummingbirds and needs extra watering during hot summer months. Otherwise, it is drought tolerant.
