    It's greater swine-cress... (eta: the other one in the opening post, that is.)

    The pics in the opening post that weren't good enough were probably misleading. Here is some better ones. Now that i think about it it probably smells more like sage than mint. But it is very strong either way. Which is why it's so interesting. It's just like a herb you'd buy.

    Ah, that's not swine-cress. Leaves are similar, but I think that has to be an http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artemisia_%28genus%29

    It's very close but by the looks of all the google pics a slightly different species, unless morphology can vary between plants. But undoubtedly in that genus.

    Mugwort doesn't have yellow flowers...they're white, tiny and almost bud-like.
    But I am pretty sure this is another 'Artemisia'.
