$24.95
The Little Spire Russian Sage (Perovskia atriplicifolia ‘Little Spire’) is a compact-growing, semi-woody perennial in the mint family that carries a cloud of small blue-lavender flowers on widely arching stems. Unlike taller Russian Sage, this variety only grows up to 2 feet tall and wide. Nicely complimenting the whorls of flowers are gray-green leaves. Its dense foliage makes it look more like a shrub than a perennial. This plant thrives on average, dry to medium, well-drained soils, and full sun. Perovskia hates to have “wet feet, ” so avoid poorly drained soils. Little Spire Russian Sage is drought resistant. The most vigorous flowering occurs in full sun locations. When crushed, the flowers are wonderfully aromatic.
