Sweet Annie OG - live plant
Artemisia annua
These Sweet Annie seedlings are available in 4 inch pots and 6 packs. We used seed from Fedco for these seedlings.
In the Garden
Grows best in zones 5 through 9. Full Sun. Well-drained soil - will grow almost anywhere. This lanky and sometimes self-seeding annual can grow 3 feet tall.
This fragrant member of the Artemisia family is known as the flower of the Common Ground Fair. When dried, its pleasant and distinctive fragrance will keep a room smelling delightful all winter.
Harvest flowers and leaves when the flowers just start to bud, but before they open, in September.
In the Apothecary
Use an extract of fresh leaf and flower in alcohol or a water infusion of dried leaf and flower to support the immune system (especially for Lyme).

A Note about Plant Sizes
This picture shows the plant full grown.
If you are picking up Seedlings, know that they are quite small - just started and will need some care to establish. We've raised them from seed, and made sure they are adjusted to 24/7 outdoor weather, so it will be the perfect time and size to take home and plant in your own garden to arrange in harmony with your other plants.
If you order bare root, they will be just breaking dormancy and will need to be planted as soon as possible. These will be 1 year plants. Give them a year to fully establish in their new home.
If you are picking up Gallon sized pots, they are 1-3 year old plants dug from our gardens at Meeting House Farm.
