Artemisia Gmelinii Subsp. Intermedia

Artemisia gmelinii subsp. intermedia is a hardy shrub native to the arid and semi-arid regions of central Asia. It is characterized by its silvery-green foliage and strong aromatic scent, which is attributed to its high concentration of essential oils. This plant is well adapted to harsh environmental conditions, making it a common sight in dry steppes and rocky soils. Its resilience and low maintenance requirements have made it a popular choice for landscaping in drought-prone areas. Despite its tough appearance, it plays an important role in local ecosystems by providing habitat and food for various insects and small animals.
