Yomogi
Artemisia princeps
packet of 200 seeds
$6.44
In stock
Family: Aster (Asteraceae)
Hardy to Zones 3 to 9
(Japanese Mugwort, Kui-hao, Ssuk) Herbaceous perennial native to Japan. Will flower to the height of 5 feet, but can be kept tidily trimmed back. Like most Artemisias, this plant is stoloniferous and will soon produce a robust patch unless you keep it contained in a pot. The plant does well in pots. Source of moxa used in moxibustion. Also a culinary herb, used in small amounts to flavor mochi, soups and rice. Excellent smudging plant used as a cold-hardy substitute to white sage, producing a smooth and cooling smoke that purifies the air and dispels negativity. Sow in spring. Press very tiny seed into surface of soil and keep evenly moist and in the light until germ.
200 seeds/pkt., Certified Organically Grown

Does this have the same medicinal actions as common mugwort?

Hi Petals, Yes, it is very similar in appearance and activity. Yomogi is also used as a spice in the culinary arts and as a source of burnable moxa to stimulate the acupuncture points and move energy. There is actually a ton of compare/contrast between the two herbs in my book “Growing Plant Medicine Vol 1” in the artemisia section. richo

hi emily, thanks for contacting. start in a deep flat or in 3-inch pots and work up in successively larger containers. a mature plant, or a small clump of plants, can be grown to maturity in a 3-gallon pot. r
