Description

The Aromas sage is a selection that stays more compact than the Cleveland sage and grows to about 3-5 ft. high and wide. It has distinctively fragrant gray-green foliage and whorls of violet-blue flowers in spring/summer. Can withstand strong winds and is deer resistant. Prefers full sun and well draining soil.
