Add Your Opinion About This Plant
This is one of my favorite plants not only for the kitchen but for an ornamental. I have 11 of them and some of them have wintered over 5 years already and still look as good as they did the second year. My common sages give up after about 3 years unless I fuss over them by stooling/coppicing them and then take a while to come back. These Bergarttens only get the pruning that is done for culinary use and spring back beautifully every year. I cut them back by about a third around Mid/Late NOV in Zone 5a USA and use the fresh and dried for the holidays. I've also noticed that they are 'almost' evergreen. They last through several hard freezes. The only issue I've had with them is that NONE of them have ever bloomed for me but the size and quality of the leaves makes it worthwhile.
