The name "sage" comes from the Latin verb salveo, meaning "to heal". This is because the plant is said to be able to heal almost everything. But the word sage also refers to wisdom, and quite often the wisdom of age. "But who can write thy worth, O sovereign sage, Some ask how Man can die where thou dost grow" wrote Sir John Harington in 1607. "The name betokens wise and saving, we count it nature's friend and worth the having." If you would like to grow wiser with age, grow with sage by your side in the garden. It will return every year: older, wiser, and more generous.
