Clary sage (Salvia sclarea)
Clary sage is a perennial condiment and ornamental plant very honey-rich with white flowers tinged with purplish blue. It is used like sage officinalis but it is preferable to use the clary with the officinalis in long cures. In popular medicine, the leaves are used to heal wounds. It has been cultivated since ancient times for its medicinal properties. However, you have to wait until the 2nd year to see it bloom and see the carpenter bees and the gassed sphinxes who adore it gorge themselves with nectar.
Its leaves can be harvested throughout the beautiful season.
