Sage 'Golden' - 4" Pot
Sage 'Golden', also known as *Salvia officinalis* 'Icterina' or 'Aurea', is a striking variegated cultivar of common garden sage. This compact, shrubby perennial features soft, fuzzy leaves with beautiful chartreuse-green centers edged in bright golden-yellow, creating a vibrant, eye-catching display. Growing 1–2 feet tall and wide, it produces aromatic foliage similar to standard sage and occasional lilac-purple flower spikes in summer. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, it's drought-tolerant once established and hardy in zones 5–9, making it ideal for herb gardens, borders, or containers.
Beyond its ornamental appeal, Golden Sage shares the same culinary and medicinal uses as regular sage. Its leaves add earthy, savory flavor to soups, stews, roasted meats like chicken or turkey, stuffings, and pasta dishes, and can be used fresh, dried, or as a garnish. Traditionally, sage offers antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties, supporting digestion, soothing sore throats, and aiding minor infections, though the variegated form is prized more for visual interest while remaining fully edible and functional.
