The leaves of the Common Sage are grey-green and velvety, bringing an elegant touch to the garden. This plant is a subshrub that can reach about 65 cm in height, and it offers a slightly bitter camphor taste, ideal for flavoring meat dishes, sauces, soups and marinades.
Hardy, common sage prefers well-drained soil and attracts beneficial insects while repelling pests. To maintain its vigor, it is recommended to replace the plant every four years, as it becomes woody over time.
Common Sage is a great option for home gardeners looking to add a productive aromatic plant to their garden.
