Salvia lyrata (Lyreleaf Sage) is a resilient, upright perennial known for its ability to thrive in diverse conditions, from full sun to shade. This plant adapts well to various soil types, including sand, loam, and clay, whether well-drained or not, and tolerates both drought and periodic flooding. With medium to low water requirements, it produces pale blue to violet flowers in spring, which attract hummingbirds and butterflies. Its dark green, purple-veined winter foliage adds interest year-round, making it an ideal ground cover that can be mowed and even walked on. Lyreleaf Sage is moderately deer-resistant and serves as a reliable nectar source for pollinators, adding ecological value to any garden.
