Re: Artemisias

Auralie, we have the same tastes in both garden design and flowers. I, too, have four different kinds of Bee Balm because I love it so.

Auralie, watch the one just labeled mugwort...it's a pernicious weed
I have been fighting for 20 years; travels underground by nasty white
roots; the smallest bit of which will create a new plant.
You're quite right, Marge.  I have pulled it out of most of its places.
However, I allow Bee Balm (Monarda didyma), which has to be one of the
most invasive plants going, in one bed, and it has just about contained
the mugwort.  I know Bee Balm is considered a weed by some, but I
love it, and have four colors which extends the bloom for weeks.
