Help!!! I'm a new gardener and need some advice from you pros!! I planted Artemisia about 1 yr. ago and it was doing well. Recently, I noticed it's turning yellow and looking straggly. I'd like to cut it back but don't know when to prune it, or by how much. I live in zone 9 and it's planted in full sun. Any advice?

Artemesia is usually a care free plant. If yours is looking straggly, you can cut it back almost to the ground and it should recover nicely. I had to do the same with mine, and by summer it looked great.
