Bring the iconic "Silverleaf" of the Chihuahuan Desert to your landscape with Texas Sage (Leucophyllum frutescens), a rugged and breathtaking evergreen shrub also known as Cenizo or Barometer Bush. This compact, loosely branched plant is famous for its shimmering, silvery-gray foliage covered in millions of tiny, soft hairs. It earns the name "Barometer Bush" because its showy masses of pink-lavender flowers burst into bloom in response to spikes in humidity or rainfall, often "predicting" a summer shower.

Typically growing 5–8 feet tall (and occasionally reaching 10–12 feet at maturity), Texas Sage is a "Texas Native Superstar" for water-conserving landscapes. Whether used as a silvery hedge, a foundation planting, or a standalone specimen, its intermittent cycles of vibrant purple-to-pink blooms provide a spectacular contrast against its ashy foliage from spring through fall.

Key Features:

  • Rain-Triggered Blooms: Showy, bell-shaped flowers in shades of violet, purple, or pink bloom in batches triggered by humidity and rainfall.
  • Silvery Evergreen Foliage: Soft, silver-gray leaves provide year-round texture and visual interest.
  • Extreme Heat & Drought Tolerance: An exceptionally water-wise choice that thrives in the intense sun of the Southwest.
  • Pollinator Haven: Attracts butterflies and bees with its nectar-rich flowers.
  • Vital Larval Host: Serves as a host plant for the Theona Checkerspot butterfly and the Calleta Silkmoth.
  • Wildlife Cover: Provides essential nesting sites and protective cover for birds.
  • Deer Resistant: Highly resistant to deer, making it a reliable choice for open landscapes.
  • Pollinator-Safe: Grown non-GMO and free of harmful neonicotinoids, promoting a healthy ecosystem for pollinators and wildlife.

Available in sets of three, six, or 12 plants to create a shimmering, drought-tolerant border.

Why Choose Texas Sage?

Texas Sage is the ultimate "low-maintenance" desert shrub. Its name Leucophyllum comes from the Greek words for "white leaf," referencing the stunning foliage that makes it a popular ornamental. It is highly valued for its ability to thrive in poor, alkaline, and rocky soils where other shrubs might struggle. Because it blooms on new wood, it responds well to pruning, allowing you to maintain a tidy hedge or a natural, sprawling form.

Planting Tips:

  1. Location: Must be planted in full sun. It thrives in heat but "humidity and high night temperatures" can be challenging outside its native range. Sharp drainage is essential. It prefers rocky, calcareous, or alkaline soils. In areas with high rainfall, consider using raised beds to prevent "cotton root rot".
  2. Watering: Once established, plants require minimal moisture. Do not over-water, as soggy soil can be lethal.
  3. Maintenance: Do not fertilize. Prune as needed to maintain shape, keeping in mind that flowers appear on new growth.

Just ok
These are just simply too large to use as chapstick unless you do both top and bottom at the same time ( no thank you). I threw them away. 3 stars because it appears to be a good product, but they got the packaging all wrong to call it chap stick.

Replaced Vaseline - Far superior product
I received this as a gift a few months ago and it's all I use now. I use it on my lips and on my neck wrinkles. Do not leave it in a warm environment, like hot car or pants pockets, it will get very soft. If it does get soft, i just dab it on ranther than rolling/wiping on. Also its best to roll it down when not in use, but not necessary. I used to be addicted to Vaseline products for my lips and this is far superior in many ways.

Not really good as a lip balm
It is way too melty or liquidy when applying. It's like putting oil on your lips. No staying power. I actually ended using it more as a skin moisturizer like a lotion. It's pretty good for that. I haven't even tried taking it with me in my pocket as I think it'll turn to a liquid like coconut oil down here in sunny hot Florida. .

In most of all circumstances, this works
Style: SPF 50, Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)
For Summer time and when playing and working in the sun, this is my go to sunscreen! I love how it is more natural than all the other ones out there. I have been sort of a spray on sunscreen connoisseur and this is the one that is my favorite. Also, if I have gotten a burn and put this on it, I believe it helps start the healing process on the burn I got. This is at least what I experienced multiple times last year. The only circumstance that this sunscreen fails miserably is in the Caribbean. I recently went on a cruise to that region and applied this sunscreen and it became evident that this and the other brands of spray on sunscreen do not work in Caribbean sun. The only sunscreen that works is the lotion based stuff that you rub into your skin. I have also consulted with friends on spray on sunscreen in the Caribbean and they all fail as well. So, this is why I say that it works in almost every circumstance.
