Salvia purpurea, commonly known as purple sage, is a resilient sage, known for its striking purple foliage and aromatic properties.
The leaves are elongated, lance-shaped, and deeply veined with a purple to purplish-green color. They are slightly hairy and have a strong, pleasant aroma when crushed.
The flowers are small, tubular, and range from purple to lavender in color. They are arranged in spikes that rise above the foliage and bloom primarily in the late spring to early summer.
The Tale:
The leaves of Salvia purpurea can be used to flavor meats, soups, and stews but they are not as commonly found in recipes as those of other sages.
Because it is so striking, it is more often used for fragrant-ornamental purposes.
Other Names:
Setcreasea pallida, purple secretia, purple-heart, or purple queen

Central America
