Sage 'Pineapple' 9cm
Pineapple sage is a perennial native to Mexico and Guatemala. It is a member of the sage family, Lamiaceae, and is also known as tangerine sage or scarlet sage.
Pineapple sage is highly prized for its ornamental and culinary qualities. It is a popular garden plant in the UK, and its bright red tubular flowers and pineapple-like aroma make it a beautiful addition to any herb garden or mixed border. The leaves of pineapple sage are also highly fragrant and can be used in cooking to add a fruity, tropical flavour to dishes.
Pineapple sage is a relatively easy plant to cultivate in the UK. It prefers well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade. It should be watered regularly, but care should be taken not to overwater it as it is susceptible to root rot. It may need bringing undercover in winter to a frost free place.
