Golden Delicious Pineapple Sage (Salvia elegans 'Golden Delicious')

Golden Delicious Pineapple Sage is grown for its bright, golden foliage that instantly lifts a planting and makes nearby colors look richer. It adds height and a full, leafy presence in beds and large containers, so designs feel more finished without extra filler plants. When the weather shifts toward fall, it often adds a bonus show of scarlet red flowers that draw hummingbirds and keep the garden active late in the season. Brush the leaves as you pass and you will notice the signature pineapple fragrance that makes this plant feel special up close.

Distinctive Features

This tender, shrubby sage forms an upright clump of softly hairy, aromatic foliage that emerges bright gold to chartreuse and can shift greener as it matures, especially in heat or shade. In late summer into fall, terminal spikes open with vivid scarlet red, tubular flowers that are especially attractive to hummingbirds. The overall look is bold but not stiff, with stems that branch and fill space quickly over the growing season. Mature size is typically about 3 to 4 feet tall and 2 to 3 feet wide in the ground, and often smaller in containers depending on season length and pruning.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun: Full sun to partial shade, with afternoon shade helpful in hotter climates to keep foliage looking its best.
  • Soil: Well-drained, moderately fertile soil is ideal, and avoid persistently wet sites.
  • Water: Provide regular water to establish, then maintain moderate moisture, watering during prolonged heat and dry spells.
  • USDA Zones: Hardy in zones 8 to 11, and commonly grown as an annual outside that range.
  • Mature Size: About 3 to 4 feet tall and 2 to 3 feet wide, with size influenced by pruning and container culture.

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Use one bold clump as a focal point where the golden foliage can brighten a key view all season and finish with red blooms in fall.
  • Mixed Borders: Place in the middle to back of beds to add height, contrast, and a lush seasonal backdrop.
  • Pollinator Plantings: Include for late-season hummingbird value when many nectar plants are slowing down.
  • Large Containers: Grow as a tall container accent that adds color and fragrance near patios and entries.
  • Herb and Sensory Gardens: Plant near paths where the pineapple-scented leaves can be enjoyed as you brush past.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Pinching: Pinch or tip-prune early in the season to encourage branching and a fuller, sturdier plant.
  • Deadheading: Trim spent flower spikes to keep the plant tidy and encourage continued blooming.
  • Watering: Water deeply during heat and drought, especially in containers, to prevent stress and leaf drop.
  • Pruning: Cut back lightly as needed to maintain shape, and do harder pruning in spring where it overwinters.
  • Overwintering: In colder zones, grow in a container and move to a bright, protected space before hard frost.

Why Choose Golden Delicious Pineapple Sage?

  • High-Impact Foliage: Golden leaves add instant brightness and contrast that improves the look of nearby plantings.
  • Late-Season Flowers: Scarlet red blooms extend seasonal interest into late summer and fall.
  • Hummingbird Magnet: Tubular flowers are a reliable nectar source that pulls hummingbirds into the garden.
  • Fragrant Experience: Pineapple-scented foliage adds a sensory element that feels special near walkways.
  • Design Versatility: Works as a tall bed accent or a container centerpiece with simple, straightforward care.

If you want bright foliage, late-season color, and hummingbird activity in one easy plant, Golden Delicious Pineapple Sage is a strong choice. Give it sun, good drainage, and consistent moisture, then pinch early and trim as needed to keep it full and attractive. Used as a statement accent or repeated for rhythm, it brings a warm, lifted look that carries the garden into fall.

Cute and STABLE
Size: 12-18 Months Toddler, Color: Navy Leather
This brand was recommended by a family member as being good for kids who are learning how to walk, and I definitely agree. My son had a different pair of shoes from Carter’s that fit well and looked cute, but the soles were a little too slick for an early walker despite having little rubberized dots on them. I like that these have more realistic soles, with real traction and support, but still allow the kid’s foot to flex. My son is very comfortable in them and was immediately noticeably more stable while standing and practicing walking in them. Bonus- they are super cute and this design is neutral enough to go with plenty of his clothes. My only small complaint is a little thread coming loose on one shoe, but so far it isn’t causing any issues/doesn’t seem to be unraveling anything structural. Highly recommend overall!

Great shoes!
Size: 18-24 Months Toddler, Color: Grey Leather
Love these shoes, only shoes I put my 15 month old in. However, they do run small. I bought 12-18 month size and my boy out grew them before 12 months old, I had to repurchase 18-24m to fit perfectly.

The BEST toddler shoe!!
Size: 18-24 Months Toddler, Color: Brooks Grey Leather
These shoes are 100% worth every penny. They are super easy to get on and off due to the fact that the tongue pulls back fully and they are flexible yet sturdy. They are excellent quality and have maintained great condition with my busy toddler at the park. The wide toe box provides great comfort for my little one’s wide feet. Buy the shoes!!!

Bummed they fell apart they are super cute
Size: 12-18 Months Toddler, Color: Raiden Camel Suede, Size: 12-18 Months Toddler, Color: Raiden Camel Suede
I’m so bummed because these shoes are so cute and highly rated but mine fell apart after only a few wears. They say light outdoor activities and I would assume they mean walking up and down the block in the neighborhood. My son is only 15 months old and doesn’t walk fast or far at all so it’s really disappointing they fell apart.
