Description:

24” x 24-30” wide, (cutting propagated). Turn up the heat in your xeriscape with this exclusive High Country Gardens introduction. ‘Blue Flame’ is a selection of the xeric sub-shrub Giant Purple Sage, chosen for its huge, brightly colored 10”+ long flowering spikes. Like a gas flame, the long tubular blue flowers poke through the rose-pink bracts attracting hummingbirds from the entire neighborhood.

To help support the huge flower spikes, it’s helpful to pinch back the tips of the new shoots in mid-spring to thicken up the plant. This beauty likes full sun, good air circulation and fast draining soil conditions. Catalog and internet sales only. Grown in premium 5” deep pots. Zones 5-9. (Not recommended for fall planting in zones 5-6)
