White Swan Clary Sage Salvia Seeds

Salvia viridis

Salvia ‘White Swan,’ also known as Clary Sage, dazzles with luminous white bracts that rise in graceful tiers along each stem, creating a clean, sculptural look in summer plantings. While the true flowers are tiny, the papery bracts hold their color beautifully in the heat, adding bright contrast to bold garden companions. Reaching 30"–40" tall, its upright, architectural form shines in borders, cottage gardens, and cut-flower beds, drawing bees and other pollinators all season long. Easy to grow, drought tolerant once established, and stunning fresh or dried, ‘White Swan’ offers effortless, refined elegance.
