TWO WILD SAGES Wit 
Being Believed by Us tbe B 
RED SAGE 
(Clinopodium Coccineam) 
This is one of the most prospective native 
plants of south Alabama. It grows in poorest 
sandy or rocky soil. A slender, sparingly 
branched shrub of two or three feet in height 
with small evergreen leaves and horizontal, 
tubular, bright red flower blooming all the 
summer and the fall until just before Christ¬ 
mas, especially at autumn, even young plants 
of a few inches are covered with a mass of red 
flow'ers. In addition to its attractive appear¬ 
ance, it has a pleasant odor which might pos¬ 
sibly be utilized in perfumery. No cold spell 
ever injured this plant down here; it may 
stand near zero weather, probably lower. No 
doubt this is one of the most suitable plants 
for Southern rock gardens; also it will be very 
valuable as a pot plant. We offer this year 
potted plants, as we have found that collected 
plants are hard to transplant.
