This geoart is in honor of my mother, formerly known as the flower lady of Portville. The cache names are just some of the varieties she has in her gardens. Read the description below to find the information needed to get the final coordinates of the cache.
The genus of Artemisia contains about 300 species of plants. It is in the Asteraceae, (daisy) family, but you will not see a lot of showy flowers with this plant. Most artemisias are grown as foliage plants and valued for their filagree-like leaves. Artemisia is often considered an herb, either culinary or medicinal. Most of the species are heavily scented and many have a somewhat bitter taste, which makes them very unattractive to browsing animals but useful for their essential oils.Artemisias have alternate leaves in various shapes. Very often the leaves are lobed, and they are generally covered with whitish hairs that give the leaves a silvery, grayish look. Their flowers are small (1/16 to 3/8 inches), white or yellow, and cylindrical. The flowers are often clustered in panicles, but sometimes they are single.
