Add beautiful color and rich flavor to your herb garden with Tricolor Sage, a greenhouse-grown starter live plant prized for its stunning variegated foliage in shades of green, cream, and purple, along with its classic sage aroma. Salvia officinalis 'Tricolor', commonly known as Tricolor Sage, is a hardy perennial herb valued for both its ornamental beauty and culinary versatility. Its fragrant leaves are perfect for seasoning poultry, pork, stuffing, roasted vegetables, soups, sauces, herb butter, and Mediterranean-inspired dishes. Its nectar-rich flowers also attract bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, and other beneficial pollinators. With proper care, it may produce blooms under suitable growing conditions.
Tricolor Sage thrives in full sun and well-draining soil. The colorful foliage provides season-long interest, making it an excellent choice for herb gardens, cottage gardens, borders, patio containers, and edible landscapes. During late spring to early summer, spikes of lavender-blue flowers bloom above the foliage, adding ornamental beauty while providing valuable nectar for pollinators. Once established, this drought-tolerant perennial requires minimal maintenance.
