A wonderful clumping or border plant, very nicely scented I think. It's a member of the same genus as wormwood, which is used to make absinthe, and mugwort, which I had growing my my garden until I realized that letting it grow in the same climate as kudzu produced nearly the same effect. I'm still ripping out straggling bits. Bastard.
I plan to do some posts about "Halloween-esque" plants to bore you all.
