Unit price perSalvia sclarea
Clary Sage is a striking short-lived perennial, often grown as a biennial, producing tall spikes of showy white to lilac flowers in its second year. Reaching around 1 m in height, it is native to the northern Mediterranean and is well suited to cottage gardens, herb borders and pollinator-friendly plantings. Once established, it is drought tolerant, thrives in poor soils and requires very little maintenance. The highly aromatic foliage and flowers attract bees and other beneficial insects throughout the flowering season.
Clary Sage has a long history of use as both a culinary and medicinal herb and is widely cultivated for its fragrant essential oil. Traditionally, it has been used to support menstrual and menopausal health, soothe digestive discomfort, promote relaxation and ease feelings of stress and nervous tension. The leaves and flowers are edible and have been used to flavour foods, wines and liqueurs, while the essential oil is valued in perfumery and natural soaps.
Approximately 250–300 seeds per gram
Approximately 35 seeds per packet
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: April to July
Subtropics: March to August

Planting / Sowing
Sow seed on the surface or cover lightly with 2–3 mm of fine seed-raising mix. Keep moist until germination. Transplant into a sunny position with well-drained soil, spacing plants 40–50 cm apart. Clary Sage thrives in poor to moderately fertile soils and becomes drought tolerant once established. Remove spent flower spikes if self-seeding is not desired.
Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.
