Latin Name: Artemisia stelleriana ‘Silver Brocade’Â
The Artemisia ‘Trailing Dusty Miller’ is a silver-foliaged, trailing perennial prized for its soft, velvety leaves and drought tolerance. Growing 6–12 inches (15–30 cm) tall with a spread of 18–24 inches (45–60 cm), it’s ideal for containers, rock gardens, and cascading over walls.
This cultivar features deeply lobed, silver-white leaves with a felt-like texture, offering year-round visual interest and dramatic contrast. Though it produces small yellow flowers in summer, it’s primarily grown for its ornamental foliage.
Thrives in full sun and well-draining, poor to average soil. Highly heat- and drought-tolerant, it’s deer-resistant and low-maintenance.
Perfect for moon gardens or coastal landscapes, pair with purple petunias, blue lobelia, or succulents for striking color contrast.
