Will purple sage grow in Ohio?

If you are referring to the culinary sage, I don't see why you would not be able to grow it.





Salvia officinalis 'Purpurascens' (purple sage) is rated to USDA Z5. So, if you are in a lower zone you can always treat it like an annual.





Here are some links with useful information:

If you are meaning a different Salvia, please update your question and I will try to see if I can help further. :)

If you're talking about the 3' high annual, yes. I have a border filled with it. It reseeds so well I have it all over. Yard, neighbor, All Over. Love it, and I leave it where it doen't cause a problem infringing on other plants. Lovely splash of purple.





I'm in NWOH
