Atriplex canescens, commonly known as fourwing saltbush, is a robust evergreen shrub native to the western United States. It features a mounding growth habit, typically reaching heights of three to six feet. Its distinctive silvery-gray foliage consists of thin, oblong leaves adapted to arid environments. This resilient plant is prized for erosion control and its ability to thrive in saline, alkaline, or poor soils under full sun. It provides essential habitat and food for local bird populations.
