Product Details

Microburst Texas Sage

Leucophyllum x candidum 'Microburst'

Microburst Texas Sage keeps the familiar character of Texas sage in a smaller, easier-to-place form. Silvery foliage gives the shrub a soft, muted appearance between bloom cycles, then vivid purple flowers suddenly cover the branches in noticeable bursts of color. Its dense branching develops into a naturally rounded shape that looks substantial without requiring the space of larger varieties. Reaching about 3 tall and equally wide at maturity, it fits comfortably into borders, foundation beds, xeriscapes, and repeated landscape plantings.

  • Evergreen flowering shrub
  • Purple blooms over silvery-green foliage
  • Compact, rounded growth habit
  • Moderate growth rate
  • Excellent for borders, xeriscapes, and foundation plantings

Microburst Texas Sage is at its best in full sun with sharply drained soil and doesn’t require much once established. Hardy in USDA zones 8 through 11, it combines heat and drought tolerance with recurring bursts of color for Texas landscapes.
