Brent Wilson · Gardenality Administrator · Zone 8A · 10° to 15° F · Comment About Planting
Plant Russian Sage in garden beds that provide very well-drained soil and full, all day sun. Consistently wet or damp soil can and will cause problems with the roots.
Brent Wilson · Gardenality Administrator · Zone 8A · 10° to 15° F · Comment About Pruning
I prune the Russian Sage in my garden one time a year in late winter or very early spring; before new growth begins to emerge. I remove about two-thirds of the foliage.
Brent Wilson · Gardenality Administrator · Zone 8A · 10° to 15° F · Comment About Feeding
I feed Russian Sage one time a year in early spring right when new growth begins to emerge with a mild organic flower food. It likes soils that are acid to neutral pH.
Brent Wilson · Gardenality Administrator · Zone 8A · 10° to 15° F · Comment About Problems
My Russian Sage has had no pest or disease problems. Deer don't like it. Wet feet can be a problem so plant in very well-drained soil.
