Phlomis fruticosa - Jerusalem Sage

Market price from $8.35 to $23.75

Phlomis fruticosa is a Mediterranean marvel, proudly holding the title of Jerusalem Sage. This hardy perennial eschews commonplace greenery with its distinguishing sage-green, woolly leaves. Come late spring and early summer, this robust shrub becomes a sunburst of vibrant yellow, as clusters of whorled flowers bloom in stunning contrast against its unique foliage. Petite but steadfast, Jerusalem Sage reaches an optimal size of 3 to 4 feet in both height and width, complementing other plants seamlessly while establishing its sturdy presence in your landscape. It's a low-maintenance, drought-resilient delight, basking in full sun and enamoring the fluttering pollinators with its radiant blooms. Whether planted as a dramatic focal point, tucked in a border or integrated in a Mediterranean-themed garden, Phlomis fruticosa stands as a testament to enduring beauty under the sun. Embrace its architectural grace and enliven your outdoor space with an all-season interest that mirrors resilience and charm.
