— A perennial shrub common in Texas, the Texas Sage is known by many names, including Purple Sage, Silverleaf, Texas Ranger, and the most unusual name of Barometer Bush. That last name comes from the fact the bush often flowers after summer rains. It is heat and cold resistant and requires very little water. It seems to grow better in rocky and well-drained soils. Here at home we have it on a sloped area. It loves plenty of sun, and its flowers bloom pretty much all year around. Bees and butterflies are often found around these flowers.
