Description
Salvia officinalis 'Berggarten' is a shrub with an upright habit. It forms a generous rounded and spreading clump, making it an excellent ground cover. It flowers from June to July. Its flowering consists of bluish-violet flowers that are 1 to 2cm (1in) long, arranged in clusters of 5 to 10 blooms. These clusters take the form of spikes and are borne on tall stems. The flowers will produce fruits called achenes.
The foliage of common sage is evergreen and aromatic. It is composed of large fragrant leaves that are 5 to 10cm (2 to 4in) long. They are greyish-green in colour and have an elliptical shape. The upper surface of the leaves is rough, while the underside is hairy. Opposite in arrangement, they are wider and more rounded than the typical sage. With slow growth, Salvia officinalis 'Berggarten' can reach a height of 60cm (24in) to 1 m (3ft). Very hardy, this shrub is native to the Mediterranean region of Europe and North Africa.
Bees are attracted to it for nectar. It is suitable for summer flower beds, borders, slopes, and sunny walls. It can also be found in woodlands and meadows. In containers, it will enhance your balconies and patios.
The Latin name Salvia means "to heal". It has medicinal properties, and is primarily used for its antiseptic abilities. It is also a culinary herb found in certain Mediterranean dishes.

Planting and care
Salvia officinalis 'Berggarten' prefers full sun but can also thrive in partial shade. Place it sheltered from cold and drying winds in light, well-drained, rather chalky and dry soil. It is sensitive to winter moisture, which can cause root rot. It does not require a large amount of water, so limit watering. Give it a good liquid fertiliser for it to establish well. After flowering, prune the plant by cutting it back to about 15cm (6in) from the ground to encourage new shoots the following year. Trim any long branches to maintain its bushy habit. Snails, aphids, and slugs can attack it.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
