Notes

'Haeumanarc' sage (Salvia nemorosa 'Haeumanarc') is a perennial for borders, pollinator gardens, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, sandy soil. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. It forms a clumping, fragrant mound and tolerates drought. Butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and birds visit the blooms.

Pairs well with Sundrops, Standing Ovation little bluestem, Jeana garden phlox, and Queen of Night tulip.
