Mugworts are an incredible group of temperate and Mediterranean climate perennials from the sunflower family that can serve as potent weed suppressors and high yielding chop and drop plants. . . Although this video discusses mugworts' effectiveness in suppressing grasses, they also work well against many broadleaf weeds. . . Mugworts tend to be invasive outside of their native distributions. Please be sure you're choosing the regionally appropriate species or finding a functionally similar alternative if you live outside of their ranges: . . 🌱 California Mugwort (Artemisia douglasiana): Native to Western North America (from British Columbia to Baja California and Nevada). . 🌱 Common Mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris): Native to Europe, Asia, North Africa, and Alaska. . 🌱 Chinese Mugwort (Artemisia argyi): Native to China, Korea, Mongolia, Japan, and the Russian Far East. . 🌱 Yomogi (Artemisia princeps): Native to China, Japan, and Korea. . .
