Description

Many years ago we found this Hummingbird Sage in the Santa Monica mountains north of Los Angeles. The plant is now twenty feet across and happily flowering its way into our web pages. Plant in part shade, under trees or even under a deck. In the wild, hummingbird sage can cover acres under the oak canopy in an oak forest. This sage can grow in heavy shade and out into coastal sun. In the interior give the plant at least afternoon shade. Although very drought tolerant after its established, surviving years of almost no rainfall, it prefers to have its foliage washed off occasionally with a hose or sprinkler.
