Artemisia
arborescens 'Powis Castle' * Wormwood
|
| This old favorite, Artemisia 'powis
castle' stays
about 3' tall and can get to 5-6 feet wide. The soft gray leaves mix
well in a lavender garden. I often mix this plant into a lavender
garden.
The plants are hardy to 15 or lower. If I have a standby plant that
might be used in all gardens this might be it. In large part I use
it because it will grow very quickly and allow a garden to fill in.
It is somewhat short-lived, sometimes only lasting a couple of
seasons. But by then the other plants have finally started to hit
their stride.
