How to Prune Woody Sages | CA Native Garden Care Series

While this video’s techniques can be applied to any woody species of sage, the example plant is Allen Chickering Sage. It is almost identical in structure, and therefore pruning experience to Pozo Blue Sage, Whirly Blue Sage, and any other sages that are a hybrid between Cleveland Sage and Purple Sage.
While the structure and branch density is slightly different, we also recommend using the same to prune any native sage, including but not limited to Cleveland Sage, Winnifred Gilman Sage, Black Sage, Purple Sage, Island Sage, Thor Sage, Desperado Sage, White Sage, and any cultivars or hybrids of the species mentioned.

this vid was super helpful in explaining the plants natural lifecycle and identification of buds/dead heads.
my bf’s family gave me a cleveland sage for graduation and i’ve been terrified of killing it! so, thank you! i feel a lot more confident about taking care of this gift :)
