White sage is a rhizomatous erect spreading-clumping herbaceous perennial in the Asteraceae family. This plant grows in poor to moderately fertile, dry to medium moisture, well-drained soils in full sun. Excellent soil drainage is essential for growing this plant well.  Propagate by division in late summer or early fall.
The silver color gives the plant its common name.  This makes a striking accent plant for green-leaved plants.
