Is White Sagebrush deer resistant?

Stiff, silvery-white and aromatic, a foot and a half to three feet, densely matted with fine hairs — it is the aroma that keeps deer off, and the color holds right through a hot summer.

It does not die, it escapes. White sagebrush runs from rhizomes and spreads quickly into large colonies, so it belongs on a dry bank, in a gravel garden, or in a strip where running is useful — not in among well-mannered perennials. Fertile, moist soil makes it worse rather than better: it goes leggy, flops open, and runs harder.

Watch the name when you buy. The Wildflower Center lists it under white sage, prairie sage, silver sage, Louisiana sage, cudweed sagewort and silver wormwood among others, and several of those names attach to quite different plants in the trade. Buy it as Artemisia ludoviciana and nothing else.
