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:
Please Note: Many perennials go ‘dormant’ which, in some cases, means that there is little or no top growth apparent between November and March. 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 spring. In the dormant period, we may not have stocks of all varieties in all pot sizes and therefore reserve the right to supply 9cm pots instead of 2 litre and adjust the price accordingly.
