|discussion=<p><i>Artemisia pontica</i> has finely dissected gray foliage and is widely planted as an ornamental. It escapes locally; it has not been reported as problematic. The only species with which it has been confused in North America is <i>A. abrotanum</i>, which has dark green (not gray) foliage.</p>
