Blue Willow West Texas Grass Sage

Blue Willow West Texas Grass Sage (SALVIA reptans 'Blue Willow') is a remarkable botanical crossover, combining the airy texture of a fine ornamental grass with the vivid color of a flowering sage. This unique variety features needle-thin, grass-like green foliage that forms a delicate, transparent mound. In late summer, slender stems rise above the fine foliage to reveal dozens of small but intense cobalt-blue flowers that appear to float in the air. Its unique "see-through" habit makes it an excellent choice for modern naturalistic plantings and rock gardens.Grown to professional standards, 'Blue Willow' features a deep and hardy Professional Grade root system developed for maximum drought tolerance and rapid garden establishment.
