COMMENTS: A vigorous, tall and erect plant with many airy sprays of buds opening to showy heads in the summer. It is the only artemisia grown for its flowers. The dark green leaves are jagged-toothed and unlike any other artemisia. Even out of bloom, the flowerhead remain attractive. Never needs staking and provides reliable architectural interest in the garden. Group several in a group for a bold display.
