Understanding Plant Options
Nature Hills offers plants in two main formats:
- Container Plants: Grown in pots with soil, sized by container volume and plant age
- Bare Root Plants: Dormant plants without soil, sized by height measurements
Container Plant Sizes

Growing Zones annual in all growing zones
Want to add an ethereal plant to your garden? Then buy Makana™ Silver Artemisia (Artemisia makana 'TNARTMS') and feel like you are walking among clouds of silvery white! These are supreme foliage plants for accenting beds and edging in lacy, fine-textured sterling foliage!
Also known as Wormwood, these create mounding, cascading fillers and spillers anywhere you want to catch the eye! Soft and billowing clouds of long, delicately cut-leaf foliage are silvery sage-green! These pair incredibly well with blue and purple flowers, light pink blooms, or set off the contrast big time with bold Purple Smokebush, Black Beauty, or Black Lace Elderberry, and Pandora Ligularia.
Artemisia produces tiny yellow button-like flowers that are insignificant; it's best to pinch them off and encourage more of this divine silver foliage to keep forming until frost! Plus, these incredible plants have that classic Wormwood scent - sharp, medicinal, and herbal!
Planting and Application:
Makana™ Silver spills and tumbles over garden edges, pot sides, and looks lovely in hanging baskets! Try potting up into an elevated urn or hanging planter to take your garden to the next level! Or use these fringy plants to encircle a gazebo or sculpture! Great facer plants, a row of these in front of dark evergreens along your foundation to kick the curb appeal into overdrive!
Silver Artemisia stays a tidy size without taking up lots of garden space, acting as heavenly fillers and spillers in planters and mixed containers! Imagine a tall urn on either side of your driveway or the entrance of a path with these glorious fountains of silver! Cottage and Rock gardens, en masse and in rows along borders, look divine! Try creating a Moon Garden or add to a Sensory Garden because of its scent!
- Lacy Fringe-Like Foliage
- Cascading Silver-Green Foliage
- Fine-Texture
- Sharp Herbal Scent

#ProPlantTips for Care:
Artemisia is an annual in most growing zones, but perennial in growing zones 9-11. Northern growers can bring these into greenhouses or sunny porches for the winter. They love the full sun and well-drained, enriched soil.
- Full Sun & Part Shade
- Moist Well-Drained Enriched Soil
- Rarely Damaged By Deer
- Mulch Well & Prune Early Spring
- Annual in Cold Climates
