White Sage
As you probably know, there are several kinds of sages out there, the most common being black sage, white sage and purple sage. These are the major varieties and of course withing each one there are subspeices like Cleaveland sage and so on. For me the above categories are good enough. We already had black sage, so today the features plant is white sage.
It's not really white but it gives the impression of the light color when viewed on from the distance. In spring you can also see sages covered with tiny flowers.
A view from above:
The plant is very aromatic, especially if you crush a leaf between you fingers.
N.B. Note the resemblance to the Indigo bush. Sage does not have stiff stems sticking up.
