Consejos de cultivo

Sage plants become woody and less productive after 4-5 years; propagate new plants from softwood cuttings in spring for replacement.

Harvest leaves just before flowering; morning harvest after dew evaporates yields the most aromatic leaves.

Well-drained soil is essential; sage roots rot quickly in wet, heavy soils especially during winter dormancy.
