Description
Salvia apiana
Also known as bee sage or sacred sage, White Sage is an aromatic evergreen perennial herb Native Americans use to make smudge sticks. Bushy plants grow up to 36″ tall. Dusty gray-green foliage is good for attracting bees and other pollinators to your garden.
Start seeds indoors three to four weeks before your last frost date. Transplant outside after all danger of frost has passed. Seeds benefit from scarification. When starting seeds, keep soil temperatures between 70 and 85° F. Requires light to germinate so gently press seeds into the soil without covering them. White sage will need full sun and well-draining soil. Water well to ensure good germination. Once established, white sage is quite drought tolerant. Typically grown for leaves. Frost sensitive perennial.

I’m no gardener, but every year I do like to have some herbs growing in planters just outside my picture windows: so far, our Northwoods deer have left herbs alone. This year, when I saw that all but two of the kinds in this set of ten packets were among the kinds I like enough to have bought separately, I saved myself some money by ordering these. They seem to be sprouting up very nicely.

I bought this 15 Culinary Herb Seed packet from Home Grown because it came recommended, states it is – “Heirloom & Non GMO” has – “High Germination Rate – Seeds” for Planting Indoor Hydroponic or in my garden. I was so impressed that I bought them a second time – yes TWICE!! I didn’t need to because each envelope of seeds come with plenty in it, but I was afraid everyone else would buy them and there would be none in stock when I wanted them again. I was amazed how quickly the little sprout broke through the seeds and grew into a tiny plant ready to be planted in the sunshine or I could keep them in the Hydroponic I used to sprout the seeds in. Truly inspirational and gave me such a boost of confidence that I can grow a small garden or a large garden just like the big guys do. I love these seeds and I know it’s because they are from Home Grown. I researched for a long time before picking them to be the seeds I would make my initial attempt with. They came highly recommended and I now I am passing on that recommendation to you. They really outshine other seeds that I’ve tried in past years. Get these seeds and you will be as extremely satisfied – as I am. Happy Planting!!

I only wanted a few seasonings and this filled the bill.

These are delivered to my house on August 23 and I planted them that day. Attached is a picture of what they look like today, September 1. They sprouted very quickly and they seem to be doing very well in Virginia weather. I was able to move them to the planter box yesterday and not have any issues.
