Planting and Care
Autumn Sage prefers well-drained soil and plenty of sunshine. Water deeply but infrequently, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. Prune lightly in late winter or early spring to encourage bushier growth and more abundant blooms. With just a little care, your Autumn Sage will reward you with years of beauty and enjoyment.
