However, it is still worth removing wormwood from the beds, recommends Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, an agronomist, and a landscape designer, otherwise the weed will spread too much.
Why do we need this grass in the garden at all?
Let's figure it out together.
It turns out that wormwood is the most reliable remedy in the fight against mice and other pests. It also helps against ants.
And the aroma coming from it, whatever you say, is quite pleasant.
If you want to benefit from wormwood, do not forget to trim the bushes - once a summer, in June, is enough - this will make them more lush.
And at the end of July, you need to cut the already ripe plants with seeds to collect wormwood brooms from them. These "bouquets" should be hung in the house, basement or bathhouse - in general, where you are bothered by uninvited guests.
