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.

Needs to outgas for a day or two and then its great.
Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1
Needs to outgas for a couple days, ideally outside on a clothes line. Having said that its the first pillow out of a half dozen Ive bought in the last 18 mos that I can sleep on. Sleeping much better and longer now. Latex foam is the only pillow for me. I swear I searched on here a year or so ago and could not find one.

Goldilocks pillow
Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1
I tried 5 different latex pillows, 2 from this brand. Most had to much loft and were too firm. This brand has one called extra soft that was comfortable but a little too soft. BUT, I could tell the latex was better so I tried this one. It strikes the perfect balance of support and is not too firm. Compared to all the other brands I would call this one soft/medium as all others "medium" were pretty firm. This one is just right!

Perfect supportive soft pillow

The perfect pillow that is hypoallergenic. It’s soft but your head doesn’t sink through. Supportive and soft at the same time. Have bought more pillows.

Very firm pillow
Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1
I'm not sure I received the same pillow as advertised. The pillows I received are extremely firm. I would not classify it as medium. It was also not covered by a cotton case. it had a very sheer gauze like material covering the latex.

Super springy and comfy!
Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1, Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1
I’ve been looking for a pillow that offers support but is soft and cushy. I had never tried a latex pillow before, and I was skeptical because I heard it could be hard, but I decided to give it a try. I tried a memory foam and it was waaaaay too hard to be comfortable. This pillow retains its shape, is really soft and plushy, and works great for back or side sleeping. It had a slight smell (not unpleasant though) when we first unboxed it, but it was gone by day 2. The pillow also sprang up immediately on unwrapping it. After a few days it seemed a little bit bigger, but it didn’t really need any time to air out/fluff up, it was basically ready straight out of the box. I’m often picky about pillows because I get headaches from sleeping on my neck in the wrong way, but this one is great and I haven’t had a problem at all. My hubby likes it too :) it’s the favorite house pillow now.
