I don't know about var. mexicana but ludoviciana is typically not invasive. It grows gregariously in big clusters of rhizomes where ever it can thrive, which is often not too many places up in the Midwest. I've personally only seen it growing naturally in dry river beds.

Good job! It has come a long way from when you got it. Does it have a distinct smell? Looks like it would smell quite nice and appears to be drought tolerant going by the silver/glaucous leaves.

it does smell wonderful. and it grows in a lot of places down here.

at the flea market they sell them alot. us mexicans know how good it is for tummy aches.

when i was small, my dad used to give me tea every night and i would sleep like a baby. its not even bad tasting.

i took out this palm that died and planted my mint right next to it.

i wonder how good of a tea mint and artemesia is.

"Bitters" probably would have quinine, but old fashioned whites thought that bitter-flavored herbs, in general, were good for tummy aches.

Mine is pungent with white, feathery leaves.

The scent is good against light sinus infections. The leaf juice can be used against heavy sinus infections, but it can be drying.

The tea is used against strep throat, but the swallowed juice is stronger. (In desperate circumstances, this anti-viral, immune enhancer might be used effectively on open sores, which seem to occur spontaneously without sanitation.)

Taken internally, my Artemesia was sedating, well above the placebo effect, but not scary like synthetics can be.

mixed with chamomile or sleep time extra tea bags, has a very relaxing mood.

I like teas alot. I want to grow chamolie this year and try your combo. :coffee:



My chamomile teabag, BTW, grew into a bushy plant, which was divided into even more bushy plants.

I want to find St. Johnswort tea, next.

Wow! It really did take off. I would be tempted to start clipping that into a hedge of sorts. Looks like it would respond nicely to a clip.

i've clippe dthe tops and made tea with it several times. i think the rain and trimming have made it the monster it is right now.


i'm thinking of triming it all the way down. drying th the branches and saving the rest to dry and use it for tea.

would there be anything wrong with this?

I don't see any reason why drying would be bad.

I got a whole bunch of dry estafiate...
One question though. I know that here in mexico Artemisa = wormwood (mugwort)

And estafiate = St.john's Wort...
Which one is it?  I'm a bit confused with the names

Yeah it is St.John's wort. It's a cool plant, but I really do not like the taste of the tea. The smoke is nice... and mixes well with other smokeables.
