You're right, Pp - Artemisia or Artemesia. This used to come up by itself in a previous garden I had. Can't remember the smell, though.

I have checked my book David and I think mine is Artemisia Southernwood, I remember a neighbour way back in the 1980s giving me some and telling me it was Lads Love, still cant describe the smell but its very aromatic and I do like it!

Hi, Pp, I checked, too, and Lad's Love is southernwood, rather than wormwood. :-)
