Platinum Sage

Platinum sage is a short, small perennial flower suited to sunny, dry locations. Its compact size and silvery foliage make it a good choice for planting along the edge of a pathway, in a rock garden, or as a slow-growing groundcover.

In early summer, it produces stalks of pretty blue flowers. The leaves are attractive throughout the summer, and contrast nicely with other plants.
