| Origin and best harvesting period |
Angelica is distributed in Gansu, Sichuan, Yunnan, Shaanxi, Guizhou, and Hubei. It is cultivated in various places. The Eastern Angelica, produced in Yanbian, Jilin, the Pink Green Angelica (Wild Qin Gui), produced in Yunnan, and the European Angelica, which we have tried to cultivate in China, are sometimes used in medicine, but are of poorer quality. The Book of Other Records says: "Angelica sinensis is born in the valley of Sichuan in the west of Long, and the roots are picked in February and August and dried in the shade." Angelica must generally be cultivated for three years before it can be harvested. The roots are dug in late autumn, cleaned of stems, leaves and soil, dried in a ventilated place for a few days, tied into small handfuls according to size, and smoked over a light fire to make them transparent. |
