Southernwood: A New Garden Companion

The camphor-scented southernwood (Artemesia abrotanum) is one of my newest companion plants for the garden. I purchased it in the spring from the Tryon Palace Heritage Plant Sale in New Bern, NC (USDA Zone 8). I left it in its pot for a few weeks before I finally found a place for it in the garden, so needless to say, it was struggling when I planted it. It's responded well to its current location.
