Description
Wormwood Seeds | Artemisia Absinthium Absinthe Herb
Sometimes known as "Green Ginger" Wormwood is a common component of the legendary spirit absinthe. While it has long been used medicinally believed to be a digestive aid.
Wormwood's relation to the liqueur known as the green fairy makes it the subject of literature and legend. We think this attractive perennial with its feathery grey-green foliage and bright yellow flowers makes a delightful addition to any garden setting.
