Artemisia stelleriana 'Mori's Strain'
Artemisia stelleriana 'Mori's Strain'
- expected April
Artemisia are wonderful plants prized above all else for their silver-grey foliage. They are easy to grow in any dry, sunny spot and make an excellent foil to more brightly colored plants.
'Mori's Strain' has extraordinarily beautiful rounded silvery-white foliage. This plant will form a splendid carpet, resembling Dusty Miller, but it is hardy year round and will even remain ever-gray in warmer areas of the country.
