Sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata) brings the scent of the American West to any garden — that distinctive, clean, slightly pungent aroma that defines desert landscapes. The silvery-gray foliage has an ethereal quality, and the plant's presence evokes wide open spaces even in a small garden bed.
This woody perennial shrub appreciates full sun, excellent drainage, and low water once established — essentially desert conditions. It can eventually reach 3-6 feet tall and equally wide, forming a substantial silvery presence. Sagebrush dislikes high humidity and wet conditions, so it's best suited to dry climates or very well-drained sites. The tiny yellow flowers are inconspicuous.
Sacred to many indigenous peoples of the West, sagebrush has been used ceremonially for countless generations. The aromatic leaves are traditionally burned for cleansing and purification ceremonies. While distinct from culinary sage, sagebrush carries its own traditional significance and medicinal properties in the herbal traditions of Western tribes. The plant's ability to thrive in harsh desert conditions while providing shelter for wildlife makes it a symbol of resilience and endurance in landscapes where little else survives.
