"The Perovskia æLittle Spire SageÆ, Perovskia atriplicifolia, is an exciting new variety to the Sage family. Growing only 3Æ high with a plant spread of 12-18ö, it is one that should not be missed. The lavender-purple flowers make a great contrast with its silvery, fragrant foliage. Deadhead for repeat bloom time. It does need a well-drained area. æLittle SpireÆ looks great anywhere in the garden. It is resistant to deer, attracts butterflies, an excellent choice for hot, dry gardens, and has attractive winter foliage."
