Sage is a staple herb in various cuisines around the world, especially with pork, poultry and stuffings. High in antioxidants, it may help support oral health, aid brain function and lower blood sugar.
Planting
Plant in beds or containers, in well-drained soil or compost, in full sun.
Care
Keep well watered until established, and then only when the soil feels dry.
Height & Spread:
40 – 50cm × 40 – 60cm.
Harvesting
Harvest leaves using scissors or fingertips, ideally in the morning when the essential oils are most potent. Regular harvesting encourages new growth, but avoid taking more than a third of the plant at a time to maintain its health.
