DESCRIPTION
Salvia officinalis ‘Icterina’ forms neat, variegated evergreen mounds of softly textured leaves edged in creamy yellow, creating a gentle contrast against the gray-green centers of each blade. The foliage remains aromatic throughout the year, adding sensory interest even when the plant is not in bloom. In late spring to early summer, upright stems rise above the leaves carrying whorls of pale lavender to soft violet flowers that bring seasonal color to the garden.
‘Icterina’ combines ornamental value with traditional herb-garden appeal. It fits naturally into borders, herb plantings, and mixed perennial beds, where its foliage brightens planting schemes and its blossoms support pollinators. The plant also adapts well to containers and edging, offering year-round structure and dependable seasonal interest.
