Pineapple sage is an herbaceous perennial in the Lamiaceae (mint) family best grown as an annual in colder regions. The genus name Salvia is derived from the Latin term salveo, which means ‘be well’ and refers to the plant's medicinal properties. Pineapple sage will grow best in full sun in moist, well-drained soil. Although somewhat drought tolerant, leaves will begin to drop with insufficient moisture. Although the plant will die down to the ground with the first frost, it will grow back the next spring in mild climates.  Pineapple sage is a hummingbird favorite, blooming in late summer to early fall when food sources may be less abundant. The edible flowers have a sweet, fruity flavor with a hint of mint and spice and smell like pineapple when crushed.
