The beautiful golden variegated leaves of Golden Sage make it an ideal plant for color contrast in the home landscape. The stems are square, which identifies it as another member of the mint family. The leaves of sage have a sharp, peppery taste. Good to flavor sausage, soups, dressings, cheese dishes, and stuffings. Try sage tea. It may not keep you young forever, but it will help control winter sniffles. Golden Sage is a source of vitamins A and C and is a neat shrubby plant | |
