Guest guest Posted January 30, 2001 Report Share Posted January 30, 2001 Dear Joannie, Checking Mrs Grieves I noticed that Artemesia " Powies Castle " or Feathery Wormwood is not mentioned - is this an American Wormwood? Have you had any experience with it?.............Love Penny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 31, 2001 Report Share Posted January 31, 2001 yikes again...never heard of it...this is a variety name and it sounds like an ornamental, though...do you have a species or reference for where you got this name? I will see what I can find..but I need to know the species before I can really comment. ;-/ Joanie >Dear Joannie, > Checking Mrs Grieves I noticed that Artemesia " Powies Castle " or >Feathery Wormwood is not mentioned - is this an American Wormwood? > Have you had any experience with it?.............Love Penny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The book also says there are 300 species of artemesia (which also includes tarragon, southernwood, sweet wormwood (sweet annie). There is no mention of American Wormwood. Were you looking for growing experience or medicinal use experience? ...hope this helps some...............Joan ************************* joanr My Country Garden http://mycountrygarden.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
