White Sage (Salvia apiana) is a sacred and iconic California native prized for its powerful aroma and striking silvery-white foliage. This evergreen shrub features thick, lance-shaped leaves that are covered in a soft, woolly felt, giving the plant a luminous, ghostly appearance in the landscape. In late spring, it sends up tall, architectural flower stalks adorned with delicate white-to-lavender blossoms that are a magnet for native bees and hummingbirds.

As a tough-as-nails member of the Salvia genus, White Sage is a specialist for the dry, sunny garden. It is exceptionally drought-tolerant and thrives in lean, rocky soils with almost no supplemental water once established. Beyond its ornamental beauty, it is world-renowned for its traditional use in smudge sticks and ceremonial incense. Why you’ll love it: Intense silvery-white foliage, deeply aromatic leaves, and an extremely water-wise nature that supports local California pollinators.

This healthy 4" live plant excels in full sun and requires excellent drainage and very little water.

We use expedited shipping policies to protect plant health and minimize plant stress in transit.  All plants are in transit for only 1-3 days. (This does not guarantee 3-day delivery as orders are not always packed and sent out on the day of your order.) We send out deliveries on a weekly schedule to ensure quick transit times, so your order may not be packaged and shipped until later in the week. For instance, we may hold shipments to avoid weekend delays that keep plants in transit for longer.

All packaging includes eco-friendly material and our shipping methods are tested regularly to ensure plants arrive healthy upon arrival.

Additionally, any delays or damages in shipping are covered by our Healthy Plant Guarantee.

If you're plants arrived damaged, we will happily replace them for free!

Please contact us, send a picture, and detail any damage, so that we can continue to improve our shipping process and make sure you receive the healthy plants you paid for.
