This sage i started from seed inside early april. In late may it was transferred to my garden in my herb section where it did really well! I was very pleased with it even if it was on the small side. The soil we have on cape cod is not very good. (Thats a lie its very good for tomatoes and thats about it. Every thing else seem to be stunted when grown here. Ok rant over. ) 


Sage to me is a beautiful pant, russian sage is my favorite I just have not had the opportunity to grow it quite yet.                                                      
                       

                                                                 

Since bring in my sage from the garden I've had some problems. I noticed the leaves curling and browning and powdery mildew tried to take my plant to. For the sage that meant I've been over watering. Also the house I live in has bad drafts, so my plants feel the cold when the wind blows. I've moved them farther back from the windows, its helped. Once I did all that its started to flourish.  Now I have a green happy magic plant.
