Artemisia tripartita
Also called Three Tip Sagebrush, Cut Leaved Sagebrush
Threetip sagebrush is a wild, aromatic, evergreen shrub of western North American mountains and dry basins, growing up to about 2 m tall with three-parted woolly leaves. It is a native wild shrub rather than a common garden plant, and it thrives in full sun and very well-drained, dry soil.
Artemisia tripartita is a species of flowering plant in the aster family known by the common name threetip sagebrush. It is native to western North America from British Columbia to Nevada and Montana to Colorado. It covers about 8.4 million acres (3.4 million hectares) of the Rocky Mountains and Great Basin.
This plant is common and can be dominant in some regions, including the steppe of Washington, the sagebrush of southern Idaho, and the grassland and shrubland in western Montana. It tolerates dry soils well.
