One of several Mugwort plants I picked from the wild and planted in my garden. Mugwort is supposed to be bad for other plants, so it's actually on the far edge of my garden. I planted it because I like the smell and it is supposed to repel critters. The plant is also edible in relatively small quantities...is often used for teas and sometimes salads, or even as an incense or smoking herb, and is supposed to induce more vivid dreams. Mugwort should not be taken in large amounts or even in prolonged use of small amounts. See Wikipedia article on Mugwort.
