Woodland Sage. Republic of Adygea
Woodland
sage (Latin: Salvia nemorosa) is a perennial plant from the genus Salvia, part
of the Lamiaceae family. Other names for it include Moldavian sage, Yailin
sage, and woodland salvia.
The plant is found in Europe, the western European part of Russia, and the foothills of Crimea and the Caucasus. It prefers steppes, meadows, and forest edges. Sage is a vibrant representative of the diverse flora of Adygea. The leaves and flowers of woodland sage are highly aromatic and can be added to various dishes as a seasoning or brewed into tea.
Additionally, sage is an excellent honey plant.
Almost all types of sage contain essential oils.
During
flowering, sage attracts attention with its beauty and aroma. Its bright purple
flowers, gathered in spike-like inflorescences, are beloved by gardeners and
horticulturists. Woodland sage is gladly planted in gardens as it is
unpretentious and blends well with other flowers.
