Artemisia arbuscula (Low Sagebrush) 250 seeds

Low Sagebrush is our favorite garden/home variety along with Mountain Big.

It's a well-mannered evergreen shrub, smells nice and is xeric. The main difference between Mountain Big will be overall size, this grows much lower (8-16" tall) and smaller; therefore, it will not attract as much wildlife, birds or provide as much food etc. This is a great border or meadow plant and also tolerates slightly more xeric conditions than Mountain Big. 

Particularly liking mountain slopes, basins and ridges that receive 10-26 inches of annual precipitation. This shrub grows in drier locations than Big Sagebrush and higher areas with more moisture than Black Sagebrush prefers, you'll often find it mingling with Mountain Big Sagebrush. Usually in sterile, dry, and rocky locations where other plant life is slim.

Excellent weed suppression as with most of our native shrubs.

Surface broadcasting onto snow or soil in the Fall or early Winter and then pressing down or raking the seed into the soil produces the best results. If planting in cells and/or indoors, stratification of 60 days is recommended but not required. Seedlings are easy to establish but don't tolerate root disturbance and might need some protection from predators (Deer).
