Tanacetum vulgare L. – A Systematic Review
Abstract: Tanacetum vulgare L. (syn. Chrysanthemum vulgare L.) commonly known as tansy, is a perennial herb of the Asteraceae family, native to temperate Europe and Asia, where it grows along roadsides, hedgerows and waste places. It was introduced into North America for medicinal and horticultural purposes and now grows wild throughout many USA states. It has two varieties: var. vulgare(distributed in N Europe and N America, however in Corsica, Sardinia and Sicily ssp. siculum grows, in some cases reported as a separate species) and var. boreale (distributed in Russia, China, N Korea and Japan). Aerial plant parts contain essential oil divided into chemotypes, and the environmental adaptability of the plants can be assumed from essential oil contents. T. vulgare is also rich in phenolic acids, flavonoids and their derivatives which contribute to the pharmacological actions of the plant.
