RemarksIt is found in specific area, from Southeast Yunnan Prov. to Southwest Guangxi Zhuangzu Autonomous Region. It has been cultivated there since the Qing dynasty. It was also called "Jinbuhuan" and has been prized since ancient times. Now, it is not only blended into the formulation of Chinese medicine, "Yunnan-baiyao" and "Pianzaihuang" but also distributed as a health food.
It is divided into "Chunqi" and "Dongqi" according to the season of harvest. Literature refers to "Chunqi" as being harvested in autumn (before the efflorescence). However, our 1999 research in Yunnan found that "Chunqi" was the root of the plant from which stems had been picked off before flowering, in middle July, and harvested in middle September. "Dongqi" was the root which had been harvested from November to December after collection of the seeds.
