Gan Mao Ling (was: Huang jing cao/gen)

[Guest guest]

Tymothy,

 

I was wondering if Mayway ever got back to you regarding Gan Mao Ling?

 

I found the info on Gan Mei Gen and San Cha Ku Satisfactory, but I still don't

know much

about Huang Jing Cao. I haven't been able to find a source for this in the US.

 

The best info was provided from

http://www.ibiblio.org/pfaf/cgi-bin/arr_html?Vitex+negundo

 

but this info is from a western herbology standpoint.

 

Regards,

 

David
