Pineapple sage is a tender perennial herb, usually grown as an annual.  The vivid red, tubular flowers are edible, and have a sweet, fruity flavor; the leaves smell like pineapple when crushed.  It prefers full sun and moist, well-drained soil.

 

Start seed indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost, covering with only a thin layer of soil since the seeds need light to germinate.  Transplant after danger of frost.
