A distinctive woodland perennial native to Honshu, Japan featuring large, arrow-shaped, fuzzy green leaves that form a lush groundcover, adding bold texture to shaded garden areas. In late summer through fall, this sage produces terminal spikes of soft yellow, two-lipped flowers that rise just above the foliage, attracting bees and other pollinators. Unlike most salvias, this plant thrives in part to full shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil. Its creeping stems allow it to spread slowly, making it an excellent choice for woodland gardens or as a unique groundcover under trees. Additionally, this species is deer-resistant, enhancing its appeal for gardeners seeking resilient plants for shaded areas.
Mature Size: 18-24″ Light: Shade/Part Sun Water: Average
