Texas Sage

Description

Texas Sage, also known as Leucophyllum Frutescens, is a popular ornamental shrub that is native to the southwestern United States and northern Mexico. It is a hardy plant that can grow up to 30-40cm in height and width, and is characterized by its dense, bushy growth habit and silvery-gray foliage. The leaves of the Texas Sage are small, oval-shaped, and covered in fine hairs that give them a fuzzy texture.

In the summer months, the Texas Sage produces an abundance of showy, bell-shaped flowers that range in color from pale pink to deep purple. These flowers are highly fragrant and attract a variety of pollinators, including bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. The Texas Sage is a drought-tolerant plant that thrives in hot, dry climates and requires minimal maintenance once established. It can be used as a low hedge or border plant.
