Although not browsed in summer, yerba santa holds its leaves in winter and is browsed by deer on winter ranges, mainly when other, more palatable browse becomes scarce. For this reason it may occupy a more important place on the range than most people think. On the Tehama deer winter range, all yerba santa seedlings studied were browsed during the 1948 winter season. Generally, with better browse sufficient, yerba santa showed little use. In fairly heavy brush, yerba santa dies out entirely in 20 or 25 years. In heavily utilized areas, where grazing reduces competition, it may live longer. However, the seeds remain viable in the soil for many years and the shrub appears again after the next fire. The seedlings are unusually sensitive to competition from herbaceous vegetation. On the Tehama deer winter range no seedlings were ever observed in.
