[Ecological learning] Hi cool climate, there is a strong ability to resist drought and cold, heat resistance, and impatience. Excessive temperatures often inhibit plant growth. Excessive soil moisture often causes root rot. Should be deep in the soil, fertile, loose, well-drained sandy soil growth, rooting in clay, slow growth. Born in forest margins, shrubs, forest grass, sparse forests and meadows. 800-1300 meters above sea level. Produced in China's North China, Northeast, Inner Mongolia and northwest, the main production in Shanxi, Heilongjiang, Liaoning, Hebei and other provinces, the former Soviet Union, North Korea and Mongolia also have distribution. Ji'an City has a distribution.
[Cultivated habits] Breeding with seeds. Seed sowing in the spring from April to May in spring or from September to October in autumn. Because seeds have many water-impervious hard seed coats, appropriate mechanical damage should be added before sowing, and soil moisture should be maintained after sowing. The temperature should be 18-20°C. It takes about 9 days to germinate. When there is excessive rainfall, it should be drained in time.
[Development and utilization] valuable medicinal plants. It is a rare species and it is a national category III protected plant. Root medicine, often for nourishing Chinese medicine, but also for veterinary drugs, sales volume. 10 times water extract of rhizomes has inhibitory effect on potato late blight.
