Winter Pruning: Autumn Sage

Evergreen woody shrub/subshrub autumn sage (Salvia greggii) really benefits from late winter pruning, both for looks and long-term good health. See how to make the cuts with Leslie Uppinghouse, horticulturist at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center. Plus, learn when to tip prune and why to leave it alone in summer droughts.

This was so educational. I’ve never thought to prune salvia, but I see how this would help keep it healthy and look good.

She gave us permission to prune! I have several autumn sages that I planned on pruning next month but maybe I’ll start now😊
