The fuzzy, arrow-shaped leaves are fragrant, ornamental and grow up to 6" long. Larger, yellow flowers that are also scented bloom from late summer through mid fall. This sage forms clumps, creeps with trailing stems, and may self-seed in ideal conditions; it is largely disease- and pest-free.
Japanese Yellow Sage is very rare in nature, including in its native habitat, and is coveted for its ability to attract hummingbirds!

A beautiful plant in full mid-September bloom here in my Little Rock garden. (zone 7b/8). It makes an excellent hosta companion. Mine receive an hour or two of morning sun and dappled shade the rest of the day. The young plants I received had the healthy and extensive root system typical of all this companies plants.
Very healthy good-sized plants that have grown rapidly in an area with 3 hours late-morning sun. Happy to get these rarely-offered plants at a relative bargain.
