White Sage

I grew this from seed. It's about two months old, a foot tall, and was not plant-napped from the nearby Santa Monica Mountains where it grows native! (It is now virtually endangered because so many people steal the plants and leaves.)

White Sage, used by native Americans in smudging ceremonies, is hard to grow from seed, this is the sole result of about 200 seeds. Soil and heat are a factor, more recent attempts have produced many more seedlings. The weather is warmer and we used seedling potting soil.
