Perovskia atriplicifolia ‘Filigran’ (peh-ROF-skee-uh at-rih-plih-sih-FOAL-ee-uh) Cutleaf Russian Sage Deciduous Perennial 3-4’ high and wide Low Water Full Sun to Light Shade USDA Zones 5 to 9 Russian Sage has a rigid upright branching habit. The silvery green finely cut leaves give it a slightly delicate look. In midsummer the upright flowering stems produce sprays of abundant small light lavender blue flowers. The blooms last long into early fall. After the plant goes dormant in the late fall, the bare grayish-white stems add some architectural interest to the landscape. Russian sage requires full sun for its best flowering. It can grow in any well-drained garden soil and is drought-tolerant once established. It is an easy to grow, low maintenance perennial. Little maintenance is required other than cutting the plant back to the ground in late winter before the new spring growth begins. Allow a large enough space for the plant to spread out freely to its full width. Great addition to any garden, and especially looks good with yellow or pink late summer bloomers like black-eyed Susan and purple coneflower.
