Description

Artemisia arborescens. 1.1L coir pot.

Native to the Mediterranean region, this woody, evergreen shrub grows around 2m high with aromatic, shiny grey / green leaves, and yellow flowers.

A hardy perennial, it enjoys a full sun position in well draining soil.

The odour of the foliage is said to help repel fleas and flies, and if rubbed on the skin, mosquitoes.

Many people plant Wormwood around their chickens, allowing them to self-medicate against worms.
