Perovskia atriplicifolia ‘CrazyBlue’


Russian Sage

 USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 1.406.030


Russian Sage is extremely valuable for its long season of bloom in the summer garden. Plants form a bushy upright clump of greyish leaves that are lacy and fragrant. Spikes of rich, purple-blue flowers appear late spring, continuing into fall. This selection is well-branched and was bred to stand tall through wind and rain. An extremely versatile garden plant, Russian Sage loves hot, sunny sites and will fit right into the perennial border, also good to use among shrubs, and even in containers or tubs. Attractive to butterflies. Prune in spring, never in fall, to no lower than 6 inches. Selected as Perennial Plant of the Year in 1995. USPP#25639: unlicensed propagation prohibited. Exceptionally drought tolerant.
