Lacey Blue Russian Sage is a compact woody perennial with fine upright aromatic silvery green foliage. Whorls of lacy lavender-blue flowers bloom on silvery stems in airy pinnacles throughout summer into fall. Best flowering in full sun and well-drained soils. Drought tolerant once established. DO NOT eat the leaves- they are mildly toxic, however the flowers are edible and have a peppery flavor.
