Doctor Lawrence, ER Stat! Dr. Lawrence, ER!
This Perovskia atriplicifolia (Russian Sage) was rushed to the castle ER today for immediate propogation. The mother plant was leggy as hell, and in desperate need of a good chopping, I tried to make about 30 babies from 3 long branches. We’ll know in a few weeks if I managed to kill them all or save the Galeazza species. I’ve heard they’re easy, so I’m hoping I’ve heard the truth.
This looks quite a bit like a beautiful true sage I did manage to kill - Salvia leucantha. Not really my fault - the winters here are way too harsh for that plant, and it made it a few winters, but not the winter of 2009-2010 when the temperature dropped to 15 below zero (Celcius) for a few days. Bye bye Mexican Sage!
