Cola herb (Artemisia abrotanum) in P9 pot

Cola herb is a unique and decorative herb with fine, gray-green leaves that, when touched, release a surprising cola aroma. Its fresh, citrusy aroma makes it a fun and playful herb for the herb garden, border, or pot. The leaves can be used in small quantities as a flavor accent in desserts, syrups, or herbal teas.

This sub-shrub grows into a compact, bushy plant of about 80–120 cm tall and remains largely green in winter.

Plant cola herb in a sunny spot in well-drained, slightly dry soil. The plant dislikes wet feet and requires little care. Prune lightly in spring to keep the shrub compact and vigorous. Winter-hardy and easy to care for.

Organic/non-organic
This planting material comes from a small-scale grower without an official organic certificate. But don't worry, we're certain it's pesticide-free.

Stronger plants, honest photos
Our plants are grown outdoors and are completely winter-hardy. They aren't young greenhouse plants, but stronger, perennials that have been growing for a while and therefore have a well-developed root system. By growing in wind, rain, and temperature fluctuations, they are better hardened, more robust, and adapt more quickly after planting than herbs grown in a warm greenhouse this year. Conservatory plants often look greener and fuller, but are younger and less resilient.

Because our plants follow the natural rhythm of the seasons, they can look bare or less attractive in winter. Many perennials die back (partially) above ground and store their energy underground. Sometimes the pot may seem empty, but don't worry: the strong roots are alive and will ensure the plant sprouts vigorously again in spring.

The photos show what the plants look like in winter, so you get a fair idea of ​​what you'll receive if you order in the spring.
