TXA note from Ginger:
Mugwort, Western Mugwort, Estafiate... The names on this video are all over the place -- which actually highlights really well how so many Artemisias are similar. This is our wild native species Estafiate (Artemisia ludoviciana). We use it in so many similar ways to the Northeast US / European species known most commonly as Mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris).
