Canary Island sage is both a large and colorful plant.
The semi-woody evergreen plant has fuzzy, grayish-green, textured leaves and bright yellow, wooly blossoms in late spring through early summer.
You can also wear the sachet around your neck where the scent of the blossoms will help your heart heal.
But this salvia is nonetheless very popular among certain individuals, thanks to a substance contained in the leaves that produces hallucinations.
Sage flowers are often used to treat throat, mouth, and gum complaints.
Stir everything together to mingle all the herbs with the salt and add up to a cup at a time to your bath water.
The color of its blossoms in the wild is usually red but varies from area to area, with some regions dominated by red-blooming plants, others pink, others orange, others purple, and others white, plus many shades in between.
The leaves are ovate with a fresh mint green color, and an anise scent when crushed.
Flower colors vary from white, to pale blue, to lavender, or rarely to pale rose color.
Description: Staking: Although the foliage of taller varieties can be a bit lanky, staking can be avoided by locating your plants where the foliage can flop gracefully or near other perennials that provide support.
