The very beginning of the noughties often gets ragged on for being a bit shit for good music. In the case of the year 2000, in terms of rock’n’roll, that’s pretty much justified, but by 2001 things were starting to turn around. Two decades ago we got the emergence of The Strokes and Yeah Yeah Yeahs, the continued rise of The White Stripes and Gorillaz taking us into the future, among others. Not so bad at all!
This week sage advice and not from the government either. The suggestion is to plant salvia, a member of the sage family, one of those plants especially welcome because they light up these dark, dour, days. Salvia in its many, many guises will provide splashes of garden colour when most is lost and down here, in our mild climes, it does so well into winter. Pat McCree, from Newnham Road in Binstead, sent me a photograph of her salvia elegans, aka pineapple-scented sage (pictured above). It’s also known as Pineapple Sage or Tangerine Sage. Pat says: “It is lighting up my garden at the moment. It will not survive the frost but I am enjoying it while it lasts and I always take a few cuttings for next year.”
