Description
Russian Sage, actually a native of Pakistan,is one of the great garden plants of all time. This semiwoody perennial carries a cloud of small blue flowers on widely arching stems that grow 3 – 4 ft tall and as wide. The effect is a charming, airy haze of soft blue against silvery gray, pungently aromatic foliage. Bloom begins in July and continues right through September, which makes Perovskia an exceptionally long-blooming perennial. Plants are vigorous and very hardy, ignoring heat, drought, and pests, while always looking fresh. Hardy in zones 4-8.

I received the bareroot plants on 3/2, planted them immediately, now 4 weeks passed, they all sprout and look healthy. 5 of them are more green than white.

My blueberry plant arrived in excellent condition – super fast shipment and as described. Will definitely be ordering from Hirt’s again in the future.
For anyone who orders live plants – make sure that upon delivery you immediately open the box and remove the plants (don’t wait a day or two). I removed the packaging holding the soil in the container, watered my plant and then placed on my sunny kitchen window sill to condition for a week or so before moving outside. I will re-pot in a month or two (when I begin to see roots coming out of the pot the blueberry was shipped in). I will be ordering from Hirt’s again in the future 🙂

Working on a memorial garden with mostly hosta plants. Saw these and thought different. Received plants quickly and was surprised at the nice size for the price. Plants are very healthy. Keeping in house until ready to plant in WNY state. These will be perfect for location. Didn’t want a solid green…deer prefer those. Very happy with purchase, service and the quality! Excellent!!!
