Constituents: 1,8-cineole (eucalyptol), artemisin, camphor, cyclobutanone, isophorone, and santonin.

This species, the state flower of Nevada, grows up to seven feet tall. It has the broadest ecological tolerance and can survive under the greatest range of environmental conditions. Tall Sagebrush has evolved a number of adaptations designed to increase the efficiency of water absorption and retention under the semi-arid conditions in which it thrives. The plants produce two types of leaves, the principal, lobed leaves persist throughout the year. Smaller, softer, non-lobed leaves appear along the branch tips in early winter and drop off during drought conditions the following summer. This allows more rapid growth during the relatively moist conditions of early spring and enables the plant to conserve resources during the hot, dry summer. Tall sagebrush also has an efficient two-component root system. Small, widely dispersed, shallow roots absorb water rapidly before it can evaporate following rainstorms. Its deep, penetrating roots draw water from reservoirs deep underground.
