Nevada State Flower

Sagebrush

(Artemisia tridentata)

The Sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata), Nevada's official state flower, is a hardy and iconic symbol of the state's rugged landscapes. This resilient perennial plant is characterized by its silvery-green leaves and a distinct, earthy fragrance. Thriving in Nevada's arid and high-desert environments, Sagebrush plays a crucial role in the state's ecosystem, providing food and habitat for various wildlife species, including the sage grouse. Its presence not only beautifies Nevada's landscapes but also serves as a reminder of the state's natural heritage and enduring spirit in the face of challenging environmental conditions.
