Grown for its silver foliage, it makes a nice foliage accent in the perennial garden - but this easy-going perennial holds a little secret that most people don't know about. It serves as a reliable host for the caterpillars of the American lady butterfly! The thick white hairs on the leaves don't deter them at all, and you're like to find that your plant becomes the neighborhood hangout for American ladies and their larvae.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e'Silver Brocade' (also known to some as 'Boughton Silver') needs full sun to look its best; well-drained soil, especially in winter, is essential as well. If you live in an area with heavy clay soils that stay wet for prolonged period, it should be planted with its crown slightly above the soil level so water drains away from it. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVital details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlant size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8-12\" tall x 2-3' wide\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e full sun (6+ hrs\/day)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHardiness\u003c\/strong\u003e: USDA zone 3-9 (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.greatgardenplants.com\/pages\/shopping-by-zone\"\u003eFind your hardiness zone\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePollinator value:\u003c\/strong\u003e caterpillar host plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotable features\u003c\/strong\u003e: sun-loving, drought tolerant, deer resistant, foliage plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePot size\u003c\/strong\u003e: one quart\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlant name: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003eArtemisia stelleriana\u003c\/em\u003e 'Boughton Silver'\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"buttarflybushes.com","offers":[{"title":"One Quart","offer_id":39663535489200,"sku":"8801","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0235\/7061\/2270\/products\/artemisia-silver-brocade-1.jpg?v=1579550107","url":"https:\/\/buttarflybushes.com\/products\/silver-brocade-artemisia","provider":"buttarflybushes.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
