hi this is Yolanda Vanveen and in this segment we're going to talk about how to grow Artemisia or wormwood and it's a beautiful herb it's also a distrub that's from Asia and Europe now wormwood is found in southern Europe all the way through into temperate Asia so when they say temperate Asia they mean the warmer climates Asia so mostly through southern China and into Malaysia and even into taiwan now it's a beautiful plant because of its foliage it has beautiful silver foliage and because it's from arid climates that means really dry climates it doesn't like to sit and warmth there it doesn't like to sit and really wet wet soil because it can rot out an Artemisia is related to French tarragon so it's kind of a herb and it spreads by rhizomes so when you start them you can start them by seed or some of the rhizomes which are just kind of a little root so you just plant them about two to three inches deep leave them in Sun if you live in a climate that's a little cooler near the coast but if you live in really really hot climate then put them in part shade and they'll do better and you can use the Artemisia and with wine and different types of chicken dishes and it's a beautiful plant that's a gorgeous in the garden as well as in the kitchen
