description for "Sage: Salvia elegans"
Like it's standard-sized cousin, the dwarf pineapple sage produces bright green leaves with reddish stems. When rubbed the leaves emit a rich, pineapple fragrance. In late summer the plants develop bright red tubular flowers that are sought out by hummingbirds. Because it stays relatively compact, this is a good choice for container gardens. Gardeners in northern zones should keep tender perennials and desirable annual herbs indoors during the cold months.
