Description
White sage is a stunning California native shrub with silvery-white foliage and tall flowering spikes. It thrives in full sun and dry conditions, making it ideal for low-water gardens in Southern California and along the West Coast. In spring and early summer, it produces pale lavender-white flowers that are rich in nectar and attract native bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds.
This upright, fragrant plant brings a sculptural element to the landscape while also supporting local pollinators and wildlife. It prefers well-drained soil and open, sunny spaces. Historically valued for its aromatic leaves, white sage is both beautiful and ecologically important in habitat gardens.
