Fruit Sage Live Plant | Salvia dorisiana | Fragrant Fruity Scented Herb Starter Plant

Fill your garden with fragrance and vibrant blooms with Fruit Sage, a greenhouse-grown starter live plant prized for its fruity-scented foliage, brilliant rosy-pink flowers, and long blooming season. Salvia dorisiana, commonly known as Fruit Sage, is a tender perennial herb native to Central America and treasured for its sweet, tropical fruit fragrance and ornamental beauty. It makes an excellent addition to herb gardens, pollinator gardens, patio containers, and tropical landscapes. Its nectar-rich flowers attract hummingbirds, bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators. With proper care, it may produce blooms under suitable growing conditions.

Salvia dorisiana thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers fertile, well-draining soil with regular moisture. Its large, softly textured green leaves release a delightful fruity aroma when gently brushed or harvested. From late summer through fall, striking rosy-pink flowers emerge from colorful bracts, creating a spectacular display while providing a valuable nectar source for pollinators. In cooler climates, Fruit Sage grows beautifully in containers and can be overwintered indoors.

You will receive one healthy, greenhouse-grown Fruit Sage starter live plant, carefully packaged for safe arrival.
