Salvia officinalis was described by Carl Linnaeus in 1753. It has been grown for centuries in the Old World for its food and healing properties, and was often described in old herbals for the many miraculous properties attributed to it. The specific epithet, officinalis, refers to the plant's medicinal use—the officina was the traditional storeroom of a monastery where herbs and medicines were stored. Habitat include Dry banks and stony places, usually in limestone areas and often where there is very little soil.","brand":"RESTORATION SEEDS","offers":[{"title":"200 Seeds","offer_id":6037613215783,"sku":"15356","price":4.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2000 Seeds","offer_id":6037613248551,"sku":"15528","price":15.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0129\/8922\/products\/Broadleaf-Sage_9a1af40c-8aa0-49ee-8b99-7b8e2d115bef.jpg?v=1512531590"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.restorationseeds.mom\/collections\/sage.oembed","provider":"RESTORATION SEEDS","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
