Description

Wormwood is very attractive to look at with its silver leaves which are stunning with the moonlight on them! Extremely bitter taste if eaten as a herb, but is an excellent repellent of mice, flies, moths, ants and insects.

An infusion in years gone by was used to expel worms from the human body! Also used in the manufacture of vermouth.

Named to honour Artemisia who was the sister and wife of the Greek/Persian King Mausolus, and who ruled after his death in 353BC. She built a magnificent tomb, called the Mausoleum (one of the seven wonders of the world) in his honour. Artemsia was a famous botanist and medicinal researcher!

A member of the daisy family.
