This is the year that I didn't leave one in the garden. It would be a front or mid-range herb in the border. This is a post I did from last year called One of My Favorites-Rosemary. Pineapple Sage (Salvia elegans) is a tender perennial of the large salvia family. It is about four feet tall in my herb garden and has beautiful red tubular flowers that hummingbirds love as you can see in my post called My Herbal Dream Come True. The leaves have the wonderful scent and taste of pineapple.
