1 / 3

Common name: Wormwood

Family: Asteraceae (Aster Family)

Comments: This cultivar of wormwood is desired for its feathery silver-gray foliage. It can grow into dense, billowing clumps 2 feet in height. With its drought tolerance and soapy-scented leaves, Artemisia 'Powis Castle' is a popular choice for xeriscaping and rock gardens. Since it tends to develop a woody base, it is best to cut it back in early spring.
