Fragrant pitcher sage
A small evergreen shrub up to 3 feet tall with a 2 foot spread. Giving it some summer water will help to retain the leaves.
Fragrant pitcher sage has attractive flowers and the most pleasing scent. The fragrant showy, lavender flowers are produced along lax 1 to 2′ long flower clusters. To produce plants with a full, dense appearance, frequently pinch back the foliage of young plants.
Will do best with some periodic summer water and partial shade during the day.
