Artemisia ‘Powis Castle’

Artemisia 'Powis Castle' is a popular shrub valued for its silvery, finely divided foliage and its ability to thrive in drought-prone areas. Native to the Mediterranean region, it is a hybrid between two species of Artemisia.  It is also known as Powis castle wormwood and Powis castle sage.  This drought-tolerant plant is a go-to choice for low-maintenance gardens due to its adaptability and striking visual appeal. It's known for its graceful, mounding habit and aromatic leaves, which provide a beautiful contrast in any garden setting.  The most notable feature of Artemisia 'Powis Castle' is its soft, silvery-gray feathery leaves that remain evergreen in mild climates. These leaves are highly aromatic when crushed, emitting a pleasant, herbal scent. Its mounding habit (grow vertically and horizontally) creates a neat, bushy appearance that adds structure to garden borders. The plant is also deer-resistant, making it a smart choice for areas with high deer populations. At full matur
