Sage needs water, but hates being waterlogged. The best way to manage your watering for sage is to get its soil right from day one. Any free-draining, gritty or sandy soil will provide an ideal habitat for sage, which will produce masses of tasty leaves for the kitchen provided it doesn't become completely waterlogged. The only benefit of improving moisture retention is improved flowering, and the potential edible flowers you can harvest as a result. Other than that, it's much safer to keep sage in free-draining conditions all year round. When establishing your sage plants from our quality seeds, consider adding perlite or coarse sand to your potting mix to enhance drainage. Sage thrives in Mediterranean-like conditions with plenty of sunshine and moderate watering. Once established, this drought-tolerant herb actually prefers to dry out between waterings, making it perfect for busy gardeners or those in water-restricted areas. In cooler climates, sage appreciates a sheltered position against a sunny wall where it can soak up reflected heat. During winter months, reduce watering even further to prevent root rot. With proper care, your sage plants can live for several years, developing into woody shrubs that provide an abundant harvest of aromatic leaves for culinary and decorative purposes. The soft gray-green foliage adds beautiful texture to herb gardens and mixed borders, while attracting beneficial pollinators when in bloom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePacket contains 20 seeds\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNote :  Plantlifeangel sources all of their seeds in small local batches were possible to ensure seeds are at their maximum viability for germination.
