It's been a while, but that doesn't look like what I remember. One of the many reasons I don't buy anything from eBay anymore. Especially plants and seeds.

Thats Artemisia genus for sure but  unfortunately not A. absinthium....   The shape of the leaves and even their color is nothing like the Absinthe plants I know.

To me thats Artemisia vulgaris.

The good news is that since you buy from Ebay you can always ask for a refund  8)
