this is the only un-known-named plant in my garden

can you help me find it's name?

It's only 4-6 inch high, 3-5 wide, no flower (at least I have not ever seen them), no smell, perennial, and it spreads. Being the only unknown thing in my garden is really bothering me if I can't find a name I might have to take it out.

It might be an artemisia. Many varieties are known to be spreaders, perhaps moreso than some gardeners desire. As your young plant grows larger, it may begin to more closely resemble the plant in the link below.

Here is a link that might be useful: Artemisia Valerie Finnis

Thank you so much. I looked at a few Artemisia but the leave were so different that I passed it over. Thank you for helping me name this last one. Don't think I will buy any more at G-sales unless they know the name. Wow, that really bugged me.

Thanks Again, Amy
