Herb - Tricolor Sage Today sage is familiar as an essential ingredient in turkey stuffing. Salvia officinalis is the basic sage long famed for culinary and medicinal value, but it is also highly decorative in the garden. The Sage Tricolor, 'Salvia officinalis 'Tricolor', has green, white, and purple varigated leaves and the color intensifies in full sun. Tricolor Sage is beautiul in the garden.

Crush or grind leaves to release full flavor and use to season soups, dressings, teas, cooked vegetables, and fish. |
