Sandy, one of the consequences of living so close to Well-Sweep
is their astounding collection of artemisias. So now I have one
too. :))
If you haven't seen 'gizhou', take a look. Its a very unusual
artemesia. Not silvery. Cut foliage almost like astilbe.
Prefers part shade. And get this: blooms. I mean lovely
blooms. Creamy white, sort of similar to aruncus, held high
above the foliage. Great, great plant. I bought one last year
to try it out. I'm going back for more.
