If you need shrubs or hedges in a truly punishingly sunny and dry location, consider Texas sage. Tiny white hairs densely cover the leaves, making the foliage a beautiful silvery color and protecting the plant from bright sun and searing reflective heat. According to local lore, these bushes act like barometers, covering themselves in a flush of purple blooms just before it rains. We find their accuracy uncanny! This cultivated variety (cultivar for short) is the first true dwarf Texas Sage on the market. Developed by Civano Growers, this beauty boasts dark indigo blooms and a dense compact growth habit.
