Sage, Honeydew Melon

Botanical Name: Salvia elegans 'Honey Melon'

Description/Size:


Same great flowers as ""Pineapple Sage"", but foliage smells of melons, plants are shorter (for us it grown only two feet) and it flowers from at least May until you allow it to freeze. Inside, it will flower all winter. I just made a luscious honeydew sage syrup for herbal sodas. Even in the winter, you can tell this is one refreshing herb. I can't wait for sun teas!

Water: Normal
Soil: Organic-Loamy
