(Mexican Tarragon, Pericon, Mexican Mint) Herbaceous perennial flowering sulfur yellow to 3 feet tall.  This plant is depicted in much Huichol art.  As a spice, the leaves are a harmless additive to eggs and other protein dishes, rendering them savory, and the flavor is very much tarragon, but also anise.  Traditional usage (TWM, Aztec): Colds. Depressant (sedative) to the CNS.  As a mild entheogen, produces euphoria and vivid dreams.  Plant prefers full sun and regular garden soil or dry, marginal soils.  They need moisture to get established but once established will withstand much drought.  Plant 1 to 2 feet apart.
