Artemisia pycnocephala

Artemisia pycnocephala 'David's Choice' - Coastal Sagewort
The texture of this variety is even finer than the foliage of the A. a. 'Powis Castle'; it also grows smaller and more compact (1 foot x 3 feet). The yellow flowers are on noticeable stems that rise out and away from the plant in the summer. This species is short lived and may have to be replaced after 3 years. It requires well-drained soils. Does not perform well in hotter inland gardens. Best in full sun with occasional summer watering. Selected by David Amme from plants growing at the Pt. Reyes Lighthouse. Hardy to 0 ° F.
