Attention: Danger of confusion!
The annual mugwort, which is often used in medicine, can easily be confused with the common mugwort. However, the two Artemisia genera are very different in their uses and internal powers. Annual mugwort (also known as Artemisia annua) is native to Asian countries and is rarely found wild The common mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris), on the other hand, is widespread.
