Chuanxiong belongs to the list of 50 fundamental herbs in the traditional herbal medicine of China. At the same time, it looks like there are some inconsistencies as for the name of the plant in the Western science. The latter names this herb Ligusticum Chuanxiong Hort, Szechuan lovage or simply Lovage, Cnidium, Ligusticum wallichii and Levisticum officinale. It is not clear whether it is correct to use all these names referring to the same plant.
Anyway, the herb under description belongs to the carrot family (Apiaceae or Umbelliferae in Latin). This family embraces many species, which have much in common and are characterized with only minor differences in the looks.
Chuanxiong is a perennial herb with massive fist-like rhizomes of brown colour and irregular shape. Its erect stems are quite thin and tender, but they can reach the height of about 1 meter. The leaves resemble those of a carrot or parsley: feathery pinnate with multiple leaflets. The small flowers, gathered in umbels, bloom from July to August and are pollinated by insects.
