description for "Sage: Salvia officinalis 'Pupurea'"
Purple sage's dark, reddish purple leaves with serrated edges are the trademark of this ornamental sage. It grows slightly smaller than Garden sage, making it an ideal container plant. It is particularly attractive interplanted with Golden sage and Tricolor sage. Can be planted outdoors in the Autumn in Zones 6-10. Gardeners in northern zones should keep the tender perennials and desirable annual herbs indoors during the cold months.
