Mugwort (Artemisia spp) is common in the West, and in various places of the world, especially around riparian areas. Though the leaves could be eaten, they are better as a medicine. The fresh leaves can be rubbed on the skin for poison oak protection, and the dried leaves make a great tinder and material for the fire bundle.
