The 'Allen Chickering' is a California native sage, growing as an evergreen shrub to 5' x 5'.

Water Saving Tip:
As the weather gets hotter avoid the temptation to increase run times.
Instead, schedule more start times with one to two hours in between to allow the water from the previous session to soak in before watering again.
