Artemisia lactiflora, sometimes known as white mugwort but not to be confused with Artemisia alba, is a perennial shrub native to western China.

It is the only species of Artemisia grown not only for its attractive foliage but also for the beauty of its flowers. While other Artemisia species have inconspicuous grey-yellow flowers, Artemisia lactiflora stands out for its spectacular display: from summer to early autumn, the plant produces a profusion of small white flowers arranged in striking plumes that rise above the dark green foliage. The epithet lactiflora means "milk-white flowers", and its fragrant blooms are also ideal for drying and using in floral arrangements.

Artemisia lactiflora is an easy-to-grow perennial that thrives in well-drained soil and is highly attractive to butterflies. Thanks to its airy texture, it is ideal for adding lightness to borders or perennial beds. Try it paired with the rich palette of blues and purples of Asters—the effect is guaranteed!

In 1993, Artemisia lactiflora was awarded the prestigious Award of Garden Merit, a distinction bestowed by the Royal Horticultural Society on ornamental plants with outstanding qualities.

From summer to early autumn, between July and September, it produces numerous small white flowers clustered in striking plumes that rise above the foliage. The flowers are fragrant and excellent for drying.

Easy-to-grow perennial shrub that prefers well-drained soils and is very attractive to butterflies. Its airy texture adds lightness to borders and flower beds. It prefers full sun or partial shade and can withstand temperatures down to around -10°C.

Try it paired with the rich palette of blues and purples of the Aster, and the effect is guaranteed.

WHAT MAKES OUR PLANTS DIFFERENT

Long anti-spiraling vases

A traditional lawn is a fragile monoculture: it drinks thousands of liters of water every summer, needs mowing every week, and turns yellow as soon as you neglect it. An alternative lawn turns this logic on its head: instead of grasses, we use Mediterranean groundcovers selected in our nursery—low, dense, and hardy plants, born for hot and dry climates.

The result is a green, walkable carpet that blooms for months, withstands drought, salt spray, and frost, and reduces watering and maintenance by 80%. It is not an aesthetic compromise: it is a more beautiful, more vibrant lawn that is more honest with the environment.
