Love the Russian Sage with the Liatris and that something burgundy in there - very striking!

Good eye! Yes, there's some purple sedum in there too.

What do you do to get your Russian Sage so big? Is it a slow grower? Mine is rather puny (though I am guilty of being stingy with water). Next year I vow to water more regularly.

That russian sage is about 7 years old. I moved it from my old house when I moved to my current place 5 years ago, and it has stayed in the same spot ever since, which probably helps. There are different varieties that come in different sizes, but I don't remember which variety this particular one is. Definitely one of the larger ones, though!
