Re: Shade garden help/ Russian sage

Paul
does that mean that to try and grow the Salvia and Russian Sage in my area is wasted effort, because our weather is very hot and humid, sometimes it's hard to breath it's so humid

These plants for the most part take dry conditions, if your air is hot and wet they might rot away.

For me Salvia and The Russian sage survive in neglect-no water in my good soils, some watering in my sandy-clay. They do not like shade but thrive under hot sun.


I think the hot humid conditions are doing them in. Plants with silver and or hairy leaves, tend to dislike humid conditions.
