Traditional use
Salvia apiana, white sage, is an aromatic subshrub of the chaparral of California and Baja California. According to a 2022 review, the Chumash traditionally used it as a ritual and medicinal plant, and it features in purification rituals of several Native American cultures.
Bundles of tied plants are burnt as incense in ceremonies by some North American groups. The smudge sticks sold in the Netherlands today most often contain white sage, and signs of over-harvesting of wild populations have been noted.

The World Checklist of Vascular Plants, compiled by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, accepts it as a species of the Lamiaceae, the mint family, and lists Audibertia polystachya Benth., Ramona polystachya (Benth.) Greene and Salvia californica Jeps. among its synonyms. Recorded common names include white sage and bee sage in English, sauge blanche in French and Weißer Salbei in German.
Native range and stated source
The checklist records the native range of the species as California and north-western Mexico. For this product, the supplier names Oregon as the source, while the pouch itself states only Made in USA.
Loose leaves or a bundle
Here the leaves are sold loose by weight. If you prefer white sage tied into a bundle, the shop also lists an Oregon white sage large leaf bundle and a small leaf bundle.
Storing your botanicals
Keep dried plants in their tightly closed pouch or in an airtight jar, away from light, moisture and heat. Powders absorb moisture easily, so close them again straight away. For extracts, tinctures and capsules, follow the instructions on the label and the printed date.
Before using a plant
- Keep plants out of the reach of children and pets.
- If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or taking any medication, ask a doctor or pharmacist first: many plants interact with medicines.
