Salvia yangii Lacey Blue 'Lisslitt', offered here as Russian Sage 'Lisslitt', is a compact Russian sage grown for airy blue to blue-purple flowers and silvery, aromatic foliage. It matures 18 to 24 inches tall with a 24 to 30 inches spread, giving you a clear footprint for edging, grouping, or mixed perennial beds. The habit forms a lacy, upright mound, so the foliage and bloom remain easy to place near paths, patios, or the front of a planting.

Choose full sun within USDA Zones 4 to 9, then provide well-drained average to lean soil and regular water while the roots establish. Its adaptable nature is strongest when once established it handles dry spells and lean or rocky soil is acceptable. Good spacing helps air move around the clump and lets the stated spread develop naturally.

The flowers add wildlife value by attracting butterflies and hummingbirds during the active bloom season. Deer and rabbit resistance make it useful where browsing pressure limits softer perennials. Fragrance or aromatic foliage adds interest when the planting is placed near walks, patios, or work areas. The long bloom window gives the planting extended color instead of a brief single flush. Use it in border fronts where its scale and texture can be seen easily.

For best results, combine this selection with companions that enjoy the same light and soil, then repeat it in small groups when you want a stronger ribbon of color. Cut old stems back in spring as new growth begins. Mulch lightly to moderate soil moisture while keeping crowns from staying wet. With its summer into fall interest and manageable footprint, it gives you a practical way to add reliable color, texture, and structure to the landscape.
