Salvia koyamae
Sage-Japanese YellowSalvia koyamae
Sage-Japanese YellowTotally unlike other Salvias, this species is a shade-loving woodland groundcover that blooms in the fall with pale yellow, two-lipped flowers which bees enjoy. Its fuzzy, toothed, arrow-shaped leaves form an attractive groundcover under trees in rich, moist soil and spread slowly by creeping stems or seed.
