The Mexican bush sage is so wonderful that northern gardeners grow it as a prized annual. Fortunately for us, it is hardy in the warmer parts of Zone 7...reliable for us to 0 degrees F. I still recommend early establishment in Zone 7, and no cutting back until spring. The hairy leaves clothe the upright stems that are topped with spectacular purple-and-white velvety flowers from late summer until frost in the fall...great for an accent in the back of the border or in a vase!
