Herb Royal - Artemisia abrotani

Southernwood (Artemisia abrotanum) is a bushy, aromatic shrub belonging to the Asteraceae family. The plant is native to Southern Europe but was introduced early on to more northerly parts of Europe, where it adapted well.

Summer lemongrass has a long cultural and historical background. In ancient traditions of Germanic peoples, the plant was used symbolically in rituals, while the Romans prized it for its fragrance and made the perfume Abrotenum from it. Due to its aromatic properties, summer lemongrass was also used for household and cosmetic purposes.

In the Middle Ages, summer lemongrass also found its way into the kitchen, where it was used to season heavy and fatty dishes, similar to the use of mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris). The leaves of summer lemongrass have a bitter taste. A cultivated variety, Artemisia abrotanum 'Cola', is distinguished by young shoots with a scent and flavor reminiscent of cola, leading to its nickname "cola plant" or "cola bush."

Today, lemongrass is primarily valued for its aromatic qualities and is used primarily in culinary, decorative, and cosmetic settings.
