The 'Silver Queen' of the dry garden.
Artemisia is a classic aromatic shrub known for its feathery, metallic-silver foliage and intense, herbal scent.
It is the ultimate 'contrast plant,' making neighboring greens and purples pop.
While famous for its role in traditional botanicals, it is primarily prized today for its extreme drought-hardiness and pest-repellent properties.
I tried to use this for tea and it was the most bitter thing I've ever tasted. Keep it as an ornamental—it looks better than it tastes!
At night, the silver leaves almost glow. It’s a very 'architectural' plant that needs almost no water once it’s established.
