Artemisia ludoviciana ssp. ludoviciana, or Prairie Sagebrush, is a resilient native plant known for its beautiful silvery-gray foliage that adds striking texture and contrast to the garden. This perennial herb attracts native bees and supports beneficial insects, making it a valuable addition to pollinator gardens.
Thriving in dry, well-drained soils, Prairie Sagebrush is highly drought-tolerant once established, making it perfect for xeriscaping or low-water gardens. Its aromatic foliage is also deer resistant, offering a low-maintenance solution for sunny spaces where deer browsing might be a concern.
For those looking to combine beauty, pollinator support, and drought tolerance, Artemisia ludoviciana ssp. ludoviciana is an excellent choice for a sustainable garden.
