Is the Artemesia a native. Is it Artemesia ludoviciana? there are lots of varieties of it.. I would put it out in the field if it was a native . Otherwise, I would trash it. Why let something non native that is invasive into a field. Some of the Japanese mugworts are pretty invassive , I hear. But Artemesia ludoviciaana var Valerie Finnis is some what well behaved. It still spreads , but it does not do it faster than one walks or runs.

this is funny, there actually is an artemisia vulgaris and i was making a play on words calling it "vulgar." it looks something like ludoviciaana. of course they all look alike in some ways. but i have it all bagged up in 3 35 gallon garbage bags. i figure it will turn to mulch. i don't want it in a field where it can eventually take over.

thanks for the name of that plant that doesn't spread as much. I have had Artemesia absinthium, and it is my favorite and I hope to find it again. Maybe at the herb festival. will take the name of the plant you mentioned with me.
