Sage is a perennial semi-shrub with oval to narrow, tapered leaves covered with fluffy hairs. The plant can reach a height of 40 to 60 cm. The best time for propagation is to start in February in a sunny place indoors, as the seed is a light germinator. Spread the seeds on moist coconut substrate or organic herb soil and press lightly. Cover the seed container with clear film to prevent the soil from drying out. Place the seed container somewhere light and warm with a temperature between 20°C and 25°C and keep the surface of the earth moist, but not wet. The plant needs sun, warmth and a place protected from the wind to produce its full aroma. Keep the soil always moist, but not waterlogged.
