Clary Sage (Salvia sclarea) is a biennial to short-lived perennial herb in the mint family. It has aromatic gray-green leaves and showy tubular flowers in white, pink, or lilac. Native to the Mediterranean region, it thrives in rocky, poor, or sandy soils and grows well in outdoor settings in full to partial sun.

  • Valuable Medicinal Herb - Clary sage is a valuable medicinal plant that has been used for centuries in traditional medicine. It is used to support women's health, stress relief, skin care, and as a digestive aid. This highly aromatic herb has known astringent and anti-inflammatory properties and is often used in tea and distilled into essential oil.
  • Ornamental & Pollinator Friendly - Clary Sage enhances your space as an ornamental plant with a lovely aromatic scent that repels garden pests. Its blooms attract beneficial insects, pollinators, hummingbirds, and more, promoting biodiversity in your garden.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are heirloom seeds?

Heirloom seeds are the types of seeds your grandparents grew. These varieties have been passed down from generation to generation. They’re old reliable open-pollinated varieties that aren’t typically grown commercially. Instead, they have a rich history that predates modern breeding techniques.

You can learn more about open-pollinated, heirloom, and non-GMO seeds in our Survival Garden Training blog.

Where are Survival Garden Seeds sourced?

The majority of our seeds are sourced in the United States, with a few exceptions when the seed is difficult to source domestically. Whenever we do have to source outside of the US, we ensure our seeds are safe to grow, non-GMO varieties that meet our standards for germination and reliability.

Are your seeds treated?

No, we do not pre-treat our farmer seeds. All of our garden seeds for sale are untreated, open-pollinated, non-GMO, and heirloom varieties. They are kept in temperature-controlled cooler storage until they are packed and shipped to keep them pest and disease-free.

In what zones can I grow your seeds?

The seeds in our collections are specifically chosen from varieties that can be successfully grown from Zone 3 to Zone 10 USDA Hardiness Zones. However, individual varieties have specific needs to thrive in different environments. Each seed pack has optimal temperatures for germination and instructions on seed starting. Consult local frost dates to plan your garden and get the most out of your seeds.

What is the shelf life of these gardening seeds?

Our seeds will generally last for 3-10 years if they are appropriately stored in a cool, dry place. However, we encourage you to grow your survival seeds within a year or two of purchase. This yields the best germination rates possible and also gives you more experience growing survival food now. At the end of the growing season, follow the instructions on the back of each packet for saving seeds for future gardens. These new seeds for survival will be more adapted to thrive in the growing conditions where you are.
