PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Sage, with its dusky, earthy flavor, is one of the essential kitchen herbs. It is extremely versatile and can be used to enhance any dish. It's a particularly delicious addition to poultry dishes and home-baked bread.

How to grow sage from seeds
Sow seed indoors in a greenhouse or on a warm windowsill, and don't move plants outside until summer. Or, plant outside when temperatures are 18 C or warmer.
Sage likes a light, well-draining soil with some well-composted material. Cover seed lightly with fine soil and keep moist during germination. When the seedlings are about 5cm tall, thin and set plants outside when it is warm and after all danger of frost.
