It's not common to see blue flowers in the fall, but this wildflower more than makes up for the lack! Loose spikes of azure-blue flowers bloom all summer and fall, and are a favorite of bees and butterflies. The handsome, grayish/green leaves of this native sage give off an aroma that is repugnant to deer, therefore making it a wonderful choice for flower bed and meadow alike!
