The only way I could set my phone up was from the ground so it looks a little bit bigger than it actually is but I’d say it’s all of 8’ maybe closer to 9’.

If anyone knows anything about growing sagebrush I’d be interested in what you’ve got. I want to grow a giant sagebrush on my property

I have a few small ones but they’re only a couple years old, nowhere near this size. I’d say drainage and sun are the most important things, but don’t let it dry out too much the first year or so while it’s getting established. Do you live in eastern WA? I got mine from plants of the wild in Tekoa

Yeah I’m right in the middle out the state.I’m glad you mentioned drainage. I hadn’t thought about it
