Sabine was honorary secretary of the Royal Horticultural Society from 1810 to 1830 and treasurer, receiving their gold medal for organising the accounts left in a state of disarray by Richard Anthony Salisbury.

Sabine died in Mill Street, Hanover Square, London, on 24 Jan. 1837 and was buried in Kensal Green Cemetery on 1 February.

There is a lithograph of him after a portrait by Eddis and his name was commemorated by de Candolle for a leguminous genus Sabinea.
