Wormwood (Artemisia absinthium) - Plant Profile

Based on your Horti Tops seed packet, here is the detailed guide for growing your Wormwood, also known as Absinthe.


Description

Wormwood is a hardy, woody-based perennial known for its striking silvery-grey foliage and aromatic properties. While it is the primary ingredient in the famous spirit Absinthe, it is also highly valued in gardens for its unique texture.

  • Appearance: It grows into a bushy, feathery shrub reaching about 60–90 cm in height. The leaves have a soft, silky texture due to fine white hairs.

  • Characteristics: It has a very bitter taste and a strong, pungent scent.

  • Garden Use: It is excellent for "moon gardens" (where silver foliage shines at night) and works well in drought-tolerant or gravel gardens. It is also known to help deter certain garden pests.


Sowing Season

The green circle with the number "3" on your packet indicates that March is the ideal time to begin.

  • Spring (March – May): This is the best time for indoor or sheltered sowing to allow the plant to establish before summer.

  • Late Summer (August – September): You can also sow during this window to allow the plant to establish roots before winter dormancy, leading to a head start the following spring.


Sowing Instructions

Wormwood is relatively easy to grow, but the seeds have specific light requirements.

  1. Soil Choice: Use a well-draining, light seed-starting mix. Wormwood prefers slightly poor, sandy soil rather than overly rich earth.

  2. Surface Sowing: The seeds are very small and require light to germinate. Scatter them on the surface of the soil and press them down gently with your finger. Do not cover them with soil.

  3. Moisture: Mist the soil gently so it remains damp but not soaked. Covering the tray with a clear lid or plastic wrap can help maintain humidity until sprouts appear.

  4. Germination: Place the tray in a bright spot at a temperature of roughly 15–20°C. Sprouting usually occurs within 10 to 21 days.

  5. Transplanting: Once the seedlings are strong enough to handle and the risk of frost has passed, move them to their permanent home.

  6. Spacing: Plant them 45–60 cm apart in a location that receives full sun.


Important Note: Wormwood contains absinthin, a substance that can wash off the leaves into the soil and stunt the growth of neighboring plants (especially fennel, sage, and cloves). It is best to give it its own dedicated space in the garden.

Good sports sunscreen for face! Blends noticeably less than chemical sunscreens
Size: 1.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
My use case: A sand volleyball tournament that goes from 9am in the morning till 6pm at night in the summer Texas sun. My primary concerns: prevents sunburn, doesn't get in my eyes when sweating. I'm not overly concerned with how well this sunscreen blends in - I don't want an opaque white paste on my face, but I'm also a sweaty sandy mess, so appearance isn't my top priority. For reference, I'm white but tan easily. This sunscreen stick works well for this purpose! I can sweat profusely as you would expect, but there is no stinging in my eyes like I get with chemical sunscreens. It also has broad spectrum protection against UVA and UVB including long wave UVA. If you want a daily sunscreen to prevent aging that appears invisible, this may not be for you. But if you want a good sports sunscreen for face that won't irritate eyes, this is it!

great sunscreen for face
Size: 1.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
this is my favorite stick sunscreen for the face. it does have a slight white cast when you first apply it but it goes away once it’s been rubbed into the skin. so many sunscreens say they have a “non-sting formula” but this is the only one i have used that truly doesn’t burn/sting the eyes when applied on the eyelids or when you sweat into your eyes. doesn’t have that traditional “sunscreen smell” either. it leaves a healthy glow to the skin as well. three swipes on all areas of the face is enough coverage. it is a little pricey but i think it lasts quite awhile. highly recommend trying this sunscreen.

Has a white cast
Size: 1.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This sunscreen has a white cast and you cannot rub it in enough for it to go away. It does protect very well from the sun and I did not burn at all using it. I would use this at the beach or outside but not for everyday use or under make up because of the white cast

Easier to Apply, Less Weight & Pkg, TSA Approved Solid
Size: 1.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Will never go back. This is super easy to use, to carry with in your bag when you’re gone all day (no spills!), doesn’t feel greasy, works right away because its mineral. In some ways, moisturizes so you don’t even need a primer!
