Yomogi Plants
Yomogi (Artemisia princeps)
Family: Asteraceae
Yomogi, also known as Japanese Mugwort, is one of Japan's most treasured perennial herbs, valued for centuries as both a nourishing spring vegetable and an important medicinal plant. The tender young shoots have a pleasant, aromatic flavour and are traditionally used in herbal teas, soups, tempura, and the famous green yomogi mochi (rice cakes).
Easy to grow, hardy, and highly productive, Yomogi spreads by underground rhizomes to form lush clumps that return year after year. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and is well suited to gardens throughout New Zealand.
Yomogi dies down in winter. Your order includes one healthy bare-rooted plant with growing shoots, ready to establish quickly in your garden once temperatures warm up.
