I won't gush over this herb but it's definitely a plant I have a strong affinity for. Actually, that's putting it lightly.... I adore it. It grows strong and beautiful in my garden reaching 6 and 7 feet tall. I harvest several times over the growing season and dry naturally.
This listing is for whole leaves.
Mugwort is an excellent herb to use in a smudge/purification incense blend and it is one of my favorites for psychic incense blends as it not only encourages and enhances psychic pursuits of all kinds but is also an excellent protective herb.
