Unit price perSalvia officinalis
Sage is a hardy, evergreen perennial growing to around 45 cm, prized for its soft grey-green aromatic leaves and attractive flowers that are highly valued by bees and other pollinators. A classic culinary herb, sage adds a rich, savoury flavour to roasted vegetables, stuffing, meats, pasta, breads and herb blends. It also makes an excellent companion plant for cabbage and carrots and has traditionally been grown to help deter moths and flies.
In traditional Western herbalism, sage has long been valued as a versatile household herb. The leaves have traditionally been used as a gargle or mouthwash to support oral and throat health, while cooled infusions have been used as a hair rinse. Sage has also been traditionally used to aid digestion and was valued for its astringent and aromatic properties.
Approximately 130 seeds per gram
Approximately 55 seeds per packet
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: April to July
Subtropics: March to May and August to October

Planting / Sowing
Sow seed 3–5 mm deep in a quality seed-raising mix or directly into well-drained soil in a sunny position after the danger of frost has passed. Keep the soil lightly moist during germination but avoid overwatering. Transplant or thin plants to 30–40 cm apart. Once established, sage is drought tolerant and benefits from regular light pruning to encourage compact, vigorous growth.

Flower seeds: As fellow gardening enthusiasts we share the love for planting and nurturing our own flowers in addition to our veggie gardens. Our carefully selected range of flower seeds, available for convenient online purchase, holds a special place in our hearts.
