Is this specific mugwort used by indigenous cultures for smudging?

Hi Paul, Yes, the Lakota elders I have talked to call this “white sage (brush)” and use it for smudging.

Can I have this shipped as late as possible? I live in the cold northeast. We don’t start planting up here in the mountains till May.

I was pleased to see three healthy and thriving starter plants arrive yesterday. As usual, they were impeccably packed and did not get damaged at all during their journey here. It always blows my mind how well these plants are packaged for shipping. I’ve been a long time customer and every order I have received so far via mail from Strictly Medicinal usually arrived in better shape than plants I pick up at local nurseries and that I have to transport home in the car…. which always has the risk of damaging leafs or twigs on the journey….
Thank you for the care you put into your work, we do appreciate not only the variety of plants you offer but also your dedication to finding the perfect way to grow and cultivate them here.

I live in NEPA Zone 4-5 . If I were to buy mugwort and plant it now will it have enough time to root inself to come back in the spring or would it be better to wait to have it shipped beginning of spring?

Hi Gail,
It would be nip and tuck, you might be better off getting it in the spring, we will have plenty.
