Artemisia Annua Oil / Southernwood Oil

Southernwood is the common name of Artemisia abrotanum species, from Compositae family.

Also known as: old man, lover's plant, lad's love, appleringie.

Southernwood is a soft, feathery and dainty species of Artemisia, a relative of the more robust

Wormwood and Mugwort. It is common throughout the Mediterranean region and was well known

to the ancients. Its common names, such as 'Lad's Love, Kiss-me-once-and-go, Maid's Love and

Old Man's Love all refer to its reported use in love magic. According to Culpeper, the ashes mixed

with oil were supposed to promote the growth of hair. The strongly aromatic leaves are insect

repellent. Southernwood is often included in herbal moth-balls and the French even call the

herb 'Garde-robe'. In the past Southernwood featured as a cooking herb, used much like

Wormwood to compliment greasy meats.
