Artemisia vulgaris Linn.
Damong-Maria is an erect perennial herb, hairy, aromatic, rank smelling, and woody
Flowering
From Early Summer TO Early Autumn
The flowering season is from early Summer to early Autumn
Planting
From Early Spring TO Early Spring
Plant in early Spring in a sunny site where the soil is free-draining. (It doesn't matter if the soil is poor, as long as it is free-draining). Water the newly-planted plant well, and keep watering regularly until the plant is established.
Propagating by seed
From Late Summer TO Mid Autumn
This plant self-seeds readily. More of a problem is stopping it from self-seeding!
Propagating by cuttings
From Late Spring TO Early Summer
Take softwood cuttings from new growth early in the day in Spring or early Summer. Cut, neatly, a 4" approx. piece of a non-flowering shoot, pinch out the tip, and cut off the bottom leaves. Dip the bottom of the cutting in hormone rooting powder, and carefully place in a pot of cutting compost with the leaves just above the level of the compost. Water, label, cover with a polythene bag, and place in a warm, bright place, out of direct sunlight. Take the polythene bag off periodically for a while for ventilation (at least twice a week)
