Spanish Sage

Aromatic plant with medicinal properties to be be cultivated in edges, flowerbeds, rockery and banks. Widely used in natural medicine for its digestive and anticatarral properties to improve blood flow or prevent kidney stones. A very appreciated honeybee plant.

Dig a hole at least two or three times as wide and deep as the root ball. Take out the plant from the container and loosen roots to allow them to spread out in all direction. Cut possible broken roots. Mix the soil extracted with a substrate and fill part of the hole with the mixture obtained. Place the plant in the hole and cover with the remaining mixture. Compact the soil around the plant and water thoroughly.
