What are the effects of Artemisia

Due to geographical reasons, I have never seen what Artemisia white artemisia looks like. At this time, I can only rely on Baidu to help me find Artemisia annua. Personally, I feel that the Artemisia annua on Baidu Pictures is not as good-looking as ginseng. The only thing I like is the color of Artemisia annua, a color that cannot be described in words. At first glance, Artemisia annua looks a bit like red rock sugar, crystal clear.
