Artemisia californica 'Canyon Gray'
Artemisia 'Canyon Grey' is a striking, low-growing perennial known for its soft, silvery-gray foliage and spreading habit. This drought-tolerant groundcover is perfect for adding texture and contrast to any landscape, making it an excellent choice for coastal gardens, rock gardens, and erosion control. Its finely textured, aromatic leaves create a beautiful, cascading effect, making it ideal for slopes, borders, and large-scale plantings. With its low-maintenance nature, 'Canyon Grey' thrives in challenging conditions while maintaining a lush, silvery appearance year-round.
This variety prefers full sun and well-draining soil, adapting well to sandy or rocky conditions. It is highly drought tolerant once established, requiring minimal water and making it a great option for water-wise landscapes. Artemisia 'Canyon Grey' is hardy in USDA zones 7-10 and can withstand coastal winds and salt spray, making it particularly well suited for seaside plantings. Growing 1 to 2 feet tall and spreading 6 to 8 feet wide, it forms a dense, trailing mat that effectively suppresses weeds and stabilizes soil. Whether used as a groundcover, an accent in xeriscapes, or to complement colorful flowering plants, Artemisia 'Canyon Grey' is a versatile and resilient choice for any low-water garden.
