Artemisia General Information

Artemisia perform with vigorous growth, but do not flower conspicuously. Used for their contrasting foliage. Also excellent in flower arrangements. Idaho has restricted all potted plant material from being shipped into Idaho at this time.

Artemisia Plant Care

Fast growing. Can be sheared by half during the summer if needed (especially if it starts to open up) - new foliage will flush out quickly. Prune back to 5-6" in early spring or late fall for clean up.

Plantable Pots

Our plants are grown in 3.5x3.5x4” plantable pots. Made from 100% biodegradable coconut husk fibers (coir), these pots have tremendous advantages over plastic pots. With better air exchange, this "breathable" pot fosters robust root growth and reduces transplant shock since you can plant the pots directly in the ground. The pot naturally becomes part of the soil on its own over time—no composting required—and since they're made from a renewable resource that requires very little energy, they're earth-friendly too!

100% Guarantee

We offer a 100% unconditional guarantee for all our perennials to reach you in good condition and to grow. If you're not satisfied, we'll reship or refund immediately. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have questions or concerns—we share your passion for gardening and want your new plants to thrive in your border!
