Common sage is a perennial, evergreen subshrub, with woody stems, grayish leaves, and blue-to-purple flowers. It is a member of the mint family. While a sage plant is in its prime, it makes an attractive addition to both herb gardens and ornamental borders. Pruning after flowering will keep the plant from getting too leggy or woody.
