Botanical Information: Salvia Lamiaceae or Mint Family is a Black Sage and is a fragrant three to six foot high perennial shrub. Black Sage is very common of dry slopes and benches to 2000' in coastal and open chaparral habitats of central and southern California. It forms dense thickets and blooms from April to July. Nectar-gathering bees utilize this plant in the production of honey. This shrub grows in the hills behind my house and fills the air every year with sweet, aromatic fragrance.
