Artemisia frigida is a tufted, low-spreading, woody-based perennial primarily cultivated for its aromatic, camphor-scented, silver-white foliage. Erect, clustered, herbaceous stems with deeply-cut, silky-haired leaves rise from tough, woody crowns. It thrives in poor to moderately fertile, dry soils in full sun and is highly drought tolerant. This versatile plant is ideal for rock gardens, borders, and groundcover, though it may become rangy and require cutting back after flowering.
