Wormwood
Artemisia Oriental Limelight
Beautiful, eye-catching lime green leaves with serrated edges and a luxurious creamy lemon-yellow variegation. This is a stunning, self-branching foliage plant which forms a colourful, fragrant mound that’s eye-catching in any garden setting. Perfect for using in mixed baskets and containers, it makes a superb filler plant for bedding and patio displays, setting off brightly coloured flowers to perfection. As it spreads by underground runners it can be quite aggressive and is best confined to a small space or container if it’s being grown in a warm, sheltered position. An outstanding recent introduction which combines well with blue and violet flowering perennials.

Garden Care:
Remove dead and damaged stems on an annual basis . Please Note: Although all our perennials are advertised as being sold in 1 litre containers, they are sometimes stocked in 9cm pots instead (particularly during the winter). If you order perennials from us, we reserve the right to supply them in 9cm pots instead of 1 litre containers, at a price of £2.50 instead of £3.80. Between November and March many perennials go ‘dormant’ which, in some cases, means they are sold as a root, corm or bulb with no top growth. If you order perennials whilst they are dormant, they may not be visible above the soil level when purchased but will burst into life in the spring.
