During dormancy, plants go inactive to conserve their energy for the next growing season. This happens naturally as seasons change!

'Sage Advice' Russian Sage (Perovskia) displays rich lavender-purple flowers summer through fall held on minty-green foliage. Strong stems on an upright habit make it the perfect thriller in containers or the landscape. This fragrant plant is drought and salt-tolerant once established, attracts hummingbirds, and resists deer.

This beauty has won 3 Top Performer awards!

A perfect perennial for hot, dry climates and also exceptionally cold hardy. Perovskia can be used in a wide variety of environments with little attention through the season - a reason they have long been a staple of landscapers. Expect these plants to be a little later to emerge in spring, but also to offer color well into fall.

32-36 inches tall and 28-32 inches wide at maturity
Grow in zones 4-9
Plant in full sun (6+ hours daily)

Our perennial plants are entering their natural dormancy phase. As part of this process, foliage and blooms are browning and dying back—this is completely normal! We give the plants a hard trim in our greenhouse to support them as they conserve energy for the next growing season. Rest assured, your perennials will wake up and thrive again when it's time in your growing zone. Dormancy is how they prepare for a healthy, vibrant comeback as the seasons change!

Care: Prune away any remaining old foliage in early spring. Fertilize every spring with Proven Winners Continuous Release Plant Food.
