Artemisia ‘Parfum d’Ethiopia’

I?m always trying out new silver plants to see how well they handle our hot and humid summers. I?ve been impressed with the perennial artemisia known as Parfum d?Ethiopia. It has a nice compact form, dense growth and provides a soft texture with its delicate lacy foliage. It has fragrance but is not overpowering like most artemisias. Parfum d?Ethiopia is easy to grow and is great to mix with other foliage and flowering plants both in beds and containers. Its branches can also be used in fresh or dried arrangements. Artemisias are often called wormwoods because for centuries they were used to treat intestinal worms.
