I bought this bargain clearance plant from a local shop but have no idea what it is .. anyone can help with id please?
looks a bit like an artemisia, has it got stron smelling leaves?
Looks like Artemesia abrotanum (Southerwood).
Lovely shrub for foliage,I cut mine back hard every spring.
It does have aromatic leaves though not very strong smelling ... but thank you both for answering, it does indeed look like it's Artemesia, and a good buy for me
Ma always called it 'Lad's Love'
Just looked it up on RHS site and one of the names is 'Boys Love'
