Southernwood, Artemisia abrotanum
Southernwood (Artemisia abrotanum)
$8.00 per plant in 9cm pot (available from Sept/Oct 2020)
Southernwood (Artemisia abrotanum) with its feathery green leaves is a lovely wee bush to have with its camphor type scent. Southernwood was traditionally planted at the gate so you could pick a sprig (or a whole branch) on your way to church and put it in your buttonhole. May die back in winter (keep in a dry position) but will grow back.
