- common wormwood

From Wikipedia:

"Felon Herb, Chrysanthemum Weed, Wild Wormwood, Old uncle Henry, Sailor's Tobacco, Naughty Man, Old Man or St. John's Plant (not to be confused with St John's wort)."

The latin name is Artemisia Vulgaris and the other names that you can call mugwort is the witch herb, muggons, and artemis herb.

Isnt that the hallucingenic in Absinthe ?

The herb present in absinthe, among others, is greater wormwood (often just referred to as wormwood.) While wormwood is hallucinogenic, due to the presence of thujone, it is not present in sufficient quantities in absinthe to cause any hallucinations. Any such effects are probably due to the the very high ABV in absinthe ~72%.

Thats pretty much what I was saying in lesser detail .I have drunk it ,and not experienced hallucinations nor did I expect to.

Common names: Mugwort, Moxa, Traveler’s Herb, Artemis Herb, Felon Herb, Muggons, Old Man, Sailor’s Tobacco. Cingulum Sancti Johannis aka St. John’s plant (NOT St. Johnswort).

Check nature sites like this to find common names of plants, also search the plant pretty thoroughly before considering to use it. I would also recommend learning the spelling of the plant as well. It's Mugwort with an O not an A
