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. |
| Screening Value | D | It adds seasonal haze and height, but it is not dense enough for privacy or winter screening. |
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.

Bought 8-10 ft and all were barely 8 if you count the container. Trees are thin and lots of brown branches and broken branches due you thrown in box truck no wrapping or anything. Hoping they survive and thicken up quick…
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!
Very nice
Guys installed for me as well
Great job
Huge selection and fast delivery. All plants arrived in great condition.
Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
