Notes
'Nana' white sagebrush (Artemisia schmidtiana 'Nana') is a perennial for borders, containers, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun and dry to moist soil of most types. It stays low at 9 to 12 inches tall and spreads 12 to 24 inches. The silvery foliage is fragrant and tolerates drought. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal.
