Artemisia californica, known as California sagebrush, is a rounded, aromatic shrub reaching five to eight feet in height. It features slender, flexible stems and fine-textured, silvery-gray foliage with threadlike lobes that release a pleasant scent when crushed. This fast-growing evergreen is a keystone species for coastal sage scrub habitats, providing vital nesting for birds. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soils, requiring minimal water once established, making it ideal for drought-tolerant landscaping and erosion control on dry slopes.
