Artemisia vulgaris
Mugwort was used in the Middle Ages to ward off evil possession and was a popular stuffing for roast goose. As the name implies, it was traditionally used in mugs of beer before the popularity of hops. Europeans frequently stuffed pillows with mugwort (and hops) to bring good vivid dreams.
Used in gruit and in beer in place of hops.
Warning: contains natural toxins, do not ingest while pregnant.
