4) Wormwood aka Artemisia absinthium
If the artist in you wants to experience that crazy Bohemian 19th century lifestyle, then this is your plant.
Wormwood is the main ingredient in the mind-altering drink absinthe, known in Parisian drawing rooms as “la fee verte” or The Green Fairy.
Van Gogh, Toulouse-Lautrec, Oscar Wilde all loved that sweet Green Fairy. In their day, many people believed it could spark creative juices. These days, you’re likely to see Eminem, Johnny Depp and Marilyn Manson slurping it down.
