What can i use sage purple flowers for?
Dry them and add them to a poupourri pot or mix them with other dried flowers in a basket of flower petals. Dried flower and flower petals in a decorative bowl or basket can really look cute in a guest bedroom, kitchen, etc. With my cut flowers that are herbs, I have a mason jar with about 2 cups of canola oil. I add all the flower and some leaf clippings to the oil. I also used rose petals, lavendar, oregano leave and flowers, etc. When the oil holds as many flowers and leaves as it will take, I cap the container and allow the mixture to age for about three weeks. Then I strain the flowers, leaves ,etc out of the oil and have a great skin/massage oil. I do this same thing with sage leaves but I use olive oil. This makes a great bread dip and/or actual sage oil that you cook with and/or baste a turkey rather than use butter or oil. I am not certain though that russian sage is condusive to this. I do this with regular sage plant. I also do this with oregano.
Reply:The small lavender flowers have a sweet flavour and can be eaten in salads or used as a garnish
