Notable FeaturesKnown for its attractive silvery foliage and drought tolerance, Hoary Mugwort is commonly used as an ornamental ground cover. It is important to note that this plant is a herbaceous perennial and not a tree species, therefore it is not cultivated as a bonsai. Several requested bonsai-specific fields are thus not applicable to this specimen.
