I have Silver King Artemesia that returns in my garden each year. You probably know how prolific it can be. It could be a nuisance, but I just pull it up where it is not wanted. I love the silver color against the greens.Lalleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11299403428288111249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18734696.post-3383015736679497152007-02-18T22:48:00.000-08:002007-02-18T22:48:00.000-08:00I too love sagebrush.

The ranges where friends and I used to ride our horses had a lot of sagebrush and I loved riding through it.<BR/><BR/>I love the pictures you posted a couple days ago. Beautiful. They remind me of the Kamloops area, not terribly far from where I live.Alice (in BC Canada)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09512112540193806978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18734696.post-87635636462279719362007-02-18T21:49:00.000-08:002007-02-18T21:49:00.000-08:00Yes, I was reading about that as well, Elizabeth J...Yes, I was reading about that as well, Elizabeth Joy. I think that there are three varieties locally. I'd never known that before and found it so interesting. I'd love to transplant some to my yard, but I think it isn't an 'easy' move, so I guess I'll just enjoy it 'out and about'. They did start quite a few from little shoots at the wildlife refuge a couple years ago, though, and they seem to be thriving.La Tea Dahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03138624485398178242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18734696.post-32165930414276145712007-02-18T21:13:00.000-08:002007-02-18T21:13:00.000-08:00Sagebrush does have it's beauties.

You captured the beauties well with your close up photo. And you are right that it can have an appealing smell. Last summer I learned that there are at least a couple different species that grow wild out there around our state, and they have differences in their leaves.<BR/><BR/>Elizabeth JoyElizabeth Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15407358802873480515noreply@blogger.com
