Question
I have these growing in disturbed areas around my house in Massachusetts. The tallest are over 2 meters. I was thinking Artemisia, but if it is I can't figure out which species.
Answer
Dear jfc, this is Artemisia vulgaris (common wormwood) again. This is the upper part of the stem where the leaves tend to have fewer divisions than lower on the stem. Again, you should find leaves with a dense coating of white-gray hairs on the lower surface and aromatic foliage (to help confirm the identification). Best wishes.
