pruning a pineapple sage

Question

How far down do I cut it back? My plant has finally died back as winter has come at last
to N. California. Should I be careful to cut above a leaf node and how much do I leave?
My plant is about 4 feet tall and planted from nursery stock 1 1/2 yrs ago.

Answer 1

You can cut this back to within a few inches from the ground. It will come back even bigger the next season. This article will give you more information on the plant: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/herbs/sage/pineapple-sage-plant.htm
