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.

😍😍 BEST DEBUT NOVEL EVER
Format: Paperback
I’m having trouble finding accurate words to describe the way this book made me feel, but I am going to do my best. To start off with basic elements, the character and world building are phenomenal. I feel a strong bond to not only the two main characters, Ara and Rogue, but to each and every character introduced throughout the book. The author did a stellar job of giving each of them unique personhood. All of the scenes are beautifully described. So much so that throughout the entirety of the book, I could see every scene: the towns, the castles, the meadows, the landscape. I have had difficulty with this and with distinguishing between outlying characters while reading in the past, but I did not have to think to remember details of world or character building because they flowed naturally within the story and were described well. I have read book series before that made me want to be a part of that world, but I actually felt like I got to step into Auryna and Ravaryn! The plot twists!! Although this is not a suspense novel, it still had me on a rollercoaster of emotions and on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. I haven’t cried actual tears over a book since I was in high school (and I’ve read a LOT). This book finally broke the floodgates in the final few chapters. Multiple times. And we love a good cliffhanger. It truly made me FEEL. THE SPICE is a solid 3.5/5. Some of the scenes had me flushed, some had me taking notes, some just had my jaw slack and my mouth hanging open. Bravo, JD Linton, bravo. The relationships: friendships, family, romantic, ALL of the relationships in this book have so much meaning. The author does a great job at making you feel the love, the anger, the peace, the frustrations, the safety, the familiarity, etc. between the characters. Ara and Rogue. I can not say enough and I also do not want to say too much. Just know that I feel like I know them both, to their core. I know what their childhood looks likes, their darkest moments, their biggest fears, their dreams and passions, what they want in life… The POV switches were seamless. I am so happy this author decided to let us see from both sets of eyes. I can not wait for book two after that cliffhanger. And there is SO much potential for at least one prequel, I can’t wait to see where this author goes! I hope this series continues and flourishes. Fingers crossed!

Amazing!
Format: Kindle, Format: Kindle
This book was phenomenal, I devoured it within a few days! For this being a debut novel, it is fantastic and I would’ve thought the author was a seasoned author. I have zero complaints about this book. Let me start by saying that the world building was phenomenal. I could picture everything in my head because of how detailed it was — that’s how good it was written. And I absolutely love the “captive/captor” trope so much, it’s become one of my favorite tropes, so I was pleasantly surprised to see that this book had that. I loved the banter between Rogue and Ara — they’re both snarky and witty, plus with the romantic tension, it made the dialogue that much better. Speaking of romantic tension, yes there is spice but not so much of it that it overrides the plot, which I loved. For me, this would probably be on the 3/5 level of spice. This book had a ton of plot twists and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

High on Tropes and Satisfaction
Format: Kindle
This is a great Romantasy book full of action, adventure, and everything you look for in this genre. I won’t lie: it does kinda feel like the author found every common trope from every successful book of this kind and threw them all into this novel. But if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Especially in romance, there’s a large audience who has specific expectations, and they want them every time. Nothing wrong with that and many times I’m one of them. I have no idea what defines a spoiler honestly, so spoiler alert!!!!!!! Tropes include: Only one bed at the inn/bar Dissatisfaction with life before hunk appears Lost royalty The chosen one Montage of dress up time followed by shocked hunk Forbidden romance between two from rival peoples Power that cannot be controlled, simply guided/asked Gathering intel at the inn/bar FMC who knows how to fight/use weapons well There’s probably more but no need to list them all. Good story and I would recommend!

OUTSTANDING
Format: Kindle
This was very, very good. The world is vast and characters are complex. There is a good plot with a whole lot going on. This is well written. Good twists and turns and some heart breaking moments. You will love these characters, they have heart and loyalty. I am hoping that there will be several more books. We've yet to see anything from the Sea Court but only a mention of them here and there. The Wood Court was given a quick couple of scenes, and only as far as some warriors, we've yet to enter their court and the Shadow Court, I'm not sure if they will be a force for good or bad, but they definitely will play a much bigger role moving forward. This is primarily the Ice and Air Courts. Told in multiple views, which I loved, it gives you a chance to see things from different eyes. There's alot of political maneuvering and deception. I loved it and will pick up the next book as it becomes available. If you like The Fae and the courts, you should love this. I think the author has mucn in store for us.

Definitely worth the read!
Format: Kindle
After taking a deep breath and taking in that wicked twist of an ending, I have finally composed myself. My first thought when I started this book was that I love Reyna's character. I was intrigued by her connection with her familiar and the Ruin that is plaguing her land. It came as no surprise that she took her sister's place in an attempt to protect her. When they reach the Air Court everything slows down. This is where it was iffy for me. First of all, I like multiple POV's in books however 7 is a bit much. It starts to interrupt the story line. I felt like I was finally making progress connecting with one character, then it was switched to another person. I felt they all had necessary or pertinent information but not necessarily were they all POV worthy. The only other thing that annoyed me was that Reyna constantly was " trapped." She would rush off without thinking, only to need rescuing. She is brilliant in a fight, but she really doesn't think through anything. Lorcan is amazing. I know he might be on the "bad" list, but his background is so interesting. Eislyn(Reyna's sister) is really so sweet, but calculating. I enjoyed her and Thane's dialogue. The author did an amazing job with the imagery in this book. Everything was so detailed it was easy to fall into the scene. I love unexpected twists and while part of the ending I expected, I wasn't expecting how it took place. All in all, I found it very entertaining and I am very invested in continuing this series. Favorite quotes: "The truth may be twisted but never false." "Who was she if she was not the enemy of the Air Court? What was her purpose of she no longer has that?" "In a war-torn land, love was always a lie."
