Black sage is the most common sage in California. This cultivar is low growing and spreading (1’H x 6’W). Though less showy than other salvia species and cultivars, it is an important food source for bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. The flowers are small and pale blue-lavender in color. After blooming, black sage seeds provide food for birds, including quail and towhees.
