Sagebrush
(Artemisia Tridentata)
Sagebrush is one of the most unusual state flowers. It’s not a plant you expect to see growing in a garden, an alpine meadow, or a forest glen. Rather, sagebrush carpets mile after mile of what many people refer to as wasteland in the American West.
Yet few state flowers are as beloved as sagebrush. It lies within the Great Basin, in a rain shadow created by California’s Sierra Nevada mountains. There was little fanfare when sagebrush was adopted as Nevada’s state emblem on March 17, 1917. Perhaps no one noticed because they had considered it the state flower all along.
