PR2519 'TAIGA'
Russian Sage Seeds

Perovskia atriplicifolia

Attracts butterflies - Heat and drought tolerant
Deer resistant - Combines beautifully with
Coreopsis, Lavender and Ornamental Grasses

haze from July to September. The gray-green leaves are finely cut and wonderfully aromatic.
Needs only moderate water and performs well even in hot, humid climates. Russian Sage
looks stunning when combined with white flowering plants. Grows 2-3 feet tall in short season
climates, and up to 5 feet in milder areas of the country. Winter hardy to zone 5. Packet is 30 seeds.

How to Plant RUSSIAN SAGE Seeds
Sow seeds in cell packs or peat pots, press into soil and barely cover. Kept at 60-65° F., germination occurs over a period of 3-5 weeks. Transplant into the garden 24-36 inches apart. Comments: Full sun, tolerates extreme heat and drought. Thrives in any soil with good drainage. Taiga's seeds are "tuned" for faster germination; usually under 5 weeks (versus up to 5 months for raw seed) and plants will bloom the first year when started early. Deer resistant, attracts butterflies and hummingbirds.
