Description: UPDATE: It's Mugwort. Artemisia vulgaris Used in cooking in both Korea and Japan, plus in eastern medicine. Out walking by Four Mile Run last weekend, we came upon three elderly Asian ladies who were collecting the most tender shoots of these plants in bags, cutting them close to the ground with little scissors. None of them spoke English, so they couldn't answer when we asked what plant it was and what it was for. What plant is this? Why did they collect them? Are they edible? Is it medicinal?
