Sagebrush is a common plant throughout the Western part of the United States and is not related in any way to the herb known as sage. When it is wet, it does smell somewhat like the herb, a probable source of the name.
Because it grows in hot, dry climates, sagebrush has adapted to minimal water requirements. It stores water in its small leaves and does not give up that water easily. So one adaptation is that its root system is able to obtain water when available. Its small waxy leaves close up their stomata (little openings on the bottom of the leaves) so as to hold on to water even during the hot, dry days.
Another adaptation is the formation of bitter tasting oils found in the leaves and stems which protects it from being grazed down by herbivores (rabbits, sheep, deer). Pronghorn antelope, also native to the same regions, can tolerate grazing on sagebrush to some extent.
The final adaptation is of a dual adaptation.
First, sagebrush reproduces primarily through underground rhizomes. "Shoots" come off the main plant and then form a new plant some distance away. This is an adaptation to the environment because the new little plant can rely on water and nutrients from the mother plant until it develops its own root system.
Second, because sagebrush does not tolerate fire and cannot come back from roots or rhizomes after a fire, it also produces seeds on a high stalk which are wind borne when mature. Seeds from plants not affected by the fire can be blown into the area which was burned off. As soon as water is available, usually from rain, the seeds can germinate and get started in the nutrient-rich ash left behind from the fire.
