Chenopodium ambrosioides

Pronounced eh-pah-ZOH-teh

This annual Mexican herb has a pungent aroma, spear-shaped, deeply toothed leaves and green flowers. It is also known as Wormseed, American Wormseed, Mexican Tea or Herba Sancti Mariae.

Epazote grows vigorously and prefers sandy soil with full sunlight, best planted in pots to control its growth. Epazote will grow out to have yellow-green flowers that appear in clusters and are known to attract beneficial insects.

Contains 50 seeds


Direct seed (recommended): Sow outdoors shallowly, as seeds require light to germinate, 2-3 seeds per inch, once the soil has warmed in early spring. Thin to stand 4-6" apart in rows, or clumps every 6-12", in rows that are 12-18" apart.
