|discussion=<p>Members of the <i>Artemisia ludoviciana</i> complex with deeply lobed leaves are sometimes confused with <i>A. michauxiana</i>, and there is evidence that plants hybridize in some locations. <i>Artemisia michauxiana</i> is distinguished by its glabrous, bright green to yellow-green foliage and lemony-sweet fragrance.</p>
