Artemisia (plant) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Artemisia is a large, diverse genus of plants with between 200-400 species belonging to the daisy family Asteraceae. Artemisia absinthium (Absinth Wormwood) was used to repel fleas and moths, and in brewing (wormwood beer, wormwood wine). In Russian culture, the fact that Artemisia species are commonly used in medicine, and their bitter taste is associated with medicinal effects, has caused wormwood to be seen as a symbol for a "bitter truth" that must be accepted by a deluded (often self-deluded) person. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Artemisia_(plant)   (875 words)
