La prestigiosa International Herb Association ha assegnato alla salvia il titolo di “Herb of the Year” “Erba dell’anno” del 2001. La salvia vanta una fra le più lunghe storie di utilizzo fra le erbe ad uso medicinale o culinario, e, più recentemente, è apprezzata come pianta ornamentale da giardino.

Sage is used for a number of related and unrelated species: it is a perennial evergreen, drought-tolerant subshrub, with grayish leaves, white, blue to purplish flowers and woody stems, native to the Mediterranean region. It grows well in medium to full sun. Sage’s pronounced pine-like aroma capitalizes on one of the most sense: smell.
The International Herb Association awarded sage the title of “Herb of the Year” in 2001. It has one of the longest history of use of any medicinal or culinary herb, and, more recently, as an ornamental garden plant.
