This new seed strain of mealy cup sage has the same upright growth habit as other S. farinacea hybrids. The difference is that S. Strata is much shorter to 15" tall x 10" wide, and the terminal flower spikes that flower consistently from late spring thru fall are bicolor blue and white...very cool! All S. farinacea hybrids should be hardy to 0 F, if they are planted in well drained soils, and not cut back until spring.
