Garden Sage: The Wise and Wonderful Herb (Salvia Officinalis.)

The old English word "sage" means a wise man, and this term comes from the belief that sage was thought to impart wisdom and improve one's memory. I can't vouch for my memory improving since planting sage, but I certainly feel wise for buying it that first summer I started growing herbs.

Sage needs fairly dry soil and full sun to thrive. Resist the urge to water it between rains; it simply does not need extra waterings. Sage does tend to become woody and will benefit from cutting back to 6 or 8 inches from the ground. I do this in the spring or early summer. It will grow back for another harvest. We are discussing the common Garden Sage or Salvia Officinalis. There are many variations of sage available and most of those are not as hardy.
