Are you talking about the silver mound type of Artemisia, @Marie2020 ? Tarragon? Absinthe type of Wormwood.
We have #3 growing along the river that shows up when the water is low. It can grow quite tall.
The mound type ornamental doesn't, that I see in people's yards. I would guess that many types of mint could compete with it for sunlight. I realize that mint can grow in the shade and have no trouble keeping several varieties alive around the backyard. However, there is a chocolate mint plant that has essentially no direct sunlight that seems barely hanging onto life, year after year.
I suppose that it would be the root systems that would provide more competition if you planted mint beside your wormwood but it might help to know the species of plants. The tarragon that I have had seemed so whispy, I doubt if it would have competed vigorously with much of anything.
