INTRODUCING SAGE SEEDS

Sage, known scientifically as Salvia, has many varieties that are native to different regions of the world and thrive in various conditions. The most well-known sage, Common Sage or Culinary Sage (Salvia officinalis), is a renowned herb in kitchens and apothecaries worldwide. It is valued for its savory flavor and many health benefits. Historically, sage was used for its antiseptic, digestive, and calming qualities.

HOW TO PLANT SAGE SEEDS

Sage plants can be started indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last frost, or they can be sown directly in the garden come late spring. Plant the seeds according to the directions on the packet, providing the appropriate conditions for your chosen varieties. When seedlings are strong enough, harden them off and transplant them to their permanent garden location. Give them plenty of room to grow, as these perennial plants will spread over time.

MAINTAINING SAGE PLANTS

Once established, most sage plants are low in maintenance. They prefer full sun but some varieties can handle partial shading. Water the plants regularly until they have rooted well, then reduce watering. Prune the leaves in early spring to encourage bushy growth. Harvest sage leaves as needed. The best aroma will be in the morning though, as essential oil concentration is highest. Leaves can be used fresh, dried, or frozen.
