Salvia yangii (formerly Perovskia atriplicifolia)
Choose Russian Sage for a hot, dry, sunny bed where you want soft blue-purple color without much watering; the tradeoff is its loose, airy habit, so it is not the plant for a crisp, formal edge.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A- | Its silvery foliage and blue-purple bloom read well from a distance, though the look is soft rather than structured. |
| Growth Rate | A | It fills in quickly once settled, which helps new plantings look established sooner. |
| Maintenance | B+ | It asks for good drainage and a spring cutback, but not much watering once rooted. |
| Deer Resistance | A- | Deer usually pass this by, since the foliage deters browsing, though no plant is completely immune where pressure is severe. |
| Small Space Fit | C+ | The airy habit can spread visually, so it needs room and may crowd narrow walkway beds. |
At PGNE, we'd typically place Russian Sage in the hottest, driest perennial bed, not in rich, damp soil. Give it neighbors with enough weight to balance its airy habit early in the season.

Yes, bees and other pollinators use the flowers heavily during bloom.
It is a strong deer-resistant choice because of its aromatic foliage, but no plant is guaranteed untouched.
It can lean in rich soil or too much shade; leaner soil and open exposure keep it sturdier.

Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!
Really great website, communication and installation. Very happy customer and would recommend them.
They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.
I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!
The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
They're very "leggy" right now but that's not unexpected in the fall. Otherwise, they look healthy, and we're looking forward to seeing them next year.
These look so good! They're nice and full and lush. Should be amazing next summer.
So far so good! Ordering was easy. So was pickup. We're looking forward to seeing how it does in the spring.
