wormwood herb
--Artemisia absinthium
Artemisia absinthium, a perennial herbaceous plant, belongs to the Asteraceae family.
Wormwood's erect stems typically reach heights of 2-4 feet, occasionally extending to 5 feet or even higher. These silvery-green stems are grooved and branched, with fibrous roots supporting the plant.
The leaves of the herb exhibit a greenish-grey hue on the upper surface and are white underneath. Adorned with silky silvery-white trichomes and small oil-producing glands, the leaves are spirally arranged. Basal leaves, with a length of up to 25 cm, are bipinnate to tripinnate and possess long petioles. Cauline leaves on the stem are smaller, measuring 5–10 cm, less divided, and have short petioles. The uppermost leaves can be both simple and sessile, lacking a petiole.
Wormwood produces pale yellow tubular flowers, forming clustered spherical heads (capitula) that are bent-down. These capitula are further grouped in branched and leafy panicles. The flowering period spans from early summer to early autumn, and the plant's fruit takes the form of small achenes.
Common Names & Nomenclature: The botanical name pays homage to the Greek Goddess of the hunt, Artemis. The common name "wormwood" finds its roots in Middle English, known as wormwode or wermode.
Also Known As: Wormwood, absinthium, green ginger, absinthe, old woman, southernwood, grand wormwood, absinthe wormwood, common wormwood.
Features and further details
Wormwood, belonging to the aster family, is originally from Europe but has become naturalized across a significant portion of North America.
In times preceding the adoption of hops, wormwood played a role in flavoring beer and mead, a honey wine. Presently, it remains a primary flavoring component in beverages like absinthe and vermouth. For those practicing herbalism at home, wormwood finds prominent use in crafting herbal bitters.
