Powis Castle Artemisia

Powis Castle Artemisia (Artemisia x 'Powis Castle') is a versatile and ornamental perennial known for its striking silvery-gray, finely dissected foliage, which adds texture and contrast to gardens. Named after the Powis Castle in Wales, where it was first discovered, this cultivar is highly valued for its aromatic leaves and its ability to thrive in dry, well-drained soils. The plant’s unique, soft, silvery foliage forms a mound that can serve as a stunning ground cover or a border plant. While it produces small, yellow flowers in late summer, it is primarily grown for its foliage, which contrasts beautifully with other plants in the landscape. Powis Castle Artemisia is particularly well-suited for drought-tolerant gardens and Mediterranean-style landscapes, as it is both heat and drought-resistant. This hardy, low-maintenance plant adds a sophisticated, textured element to any garden with its soft, silvery hue.
