Phlomis russeliana
Phlomis russeliana, commonly known as Turkish Sage, is a striking herbaceous perennial valued for its bold structure and long-lasting interest. It forms upright stems clothed in textured, grey-green foliage, creating a strong architectural presence in the garden.
In summer, tiered whorls of soft yellow flowers appear at intervals along the stems, producing a distinctive layered effect. These are followed by attractive seed heads that persist into winter, adding further structure and seasonal interest. Easy to grow and highly drought tolerant once established, it is ideal for sunny borders and naturalistic planting schemes.
