For a perfect, subtle blue and green backdrop, add some vertical dimension with Bumblesky Garden Sage. Beginning with deep green foliage, this sage becomes enveloped in bright light blue blooms during the warm season. This shrub is even better when planted consecutively throughout the landscape. This sage would make an excellent border plant for a pop of bright color.
This sage can be grown in a variety of areas throughout the landscape, but truly thrives near its own kind. It can be placed in containers to add texture, as well as used as a focal point for a more classic english garden look. One can’t go wrong when planting this easy to grow perennial sage, as it’s a pollinator favorite. Considering the long stems, and abundant blooms it can even be used as a bouquet filler.
Bumblesky Garden Sage Care
Bumblesky Garden Sage is hardy in zones three through eight. This sage is very easy to grow and not susceptible to most pests. It is drought tolerant once established, but blooms more luciously with an average amount of water. It blooms most successfully when planted in full sun.
This sage can be cut back after flowering to promote reblooming. Otherwise, it’s generally low maintenance.
Bumblesky Garden Sage Spacing
This sage can grow 15 to 18 inches tall. It grows mounded in nature, and it should be spread 15 to 18 inches apart.
