Perovskia atriplicifolia 'Little Spire' / RUSSIAN SAGE
Perovskia atriplicifolia 'Little Spire,' commonly known as Russian Sage, is a compact, upright variety that offers all the charm of the larger species in a more manageable size, typically reaching 2 to 3 feet in height. This cultivar features aromatic, silvery-gray foliage that provides a soft, silken texture, while its vibrant spikes of lavender-blue flowers bloom from mid-summer to fall, attracting bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. 'Little Spire' thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it a perfect choice for low-maintenance, drought-tolerant gardens or containers. The plant’s slender, vertical form adds elegant structure and color to borders, rock gardens, and perennial beds without overwhelming the space. With its extended bloom period, resilience, and pollinator-friendly nature, Perovskia atriplicifolia 'Little Spire' is a wonderful option for adding beauty and movement to smaller garden areas.
