Artemisia absinthium / Wormwood

Wormwood is an easy-to-grow, perennial herb with silver green, intricate foliage. The plant grows a modest 2-3 feet tall in a 1-2 foot wide clump and thrives in full sun with well draining soil where the roots won’t rot from moisture. In addition to using it ornamentally for its foliage, medicinal herbalists use it to promote digestive health. Deadhead to prevent unwanted self-sowing.
