Conioselinum anthriscoides

About

Conioselinum anthriscoides, more commonly known as Ligusticum sinense, is a species of flowering plant in the genus hemlock-parsley. It is native to Southern China and is used in traditional Chinese medicine as two separate herbs, both derived from the rhizome and roots of the plant: gaoben (藁本) and chuanxiong (川芎). These two differ by the exact cultivar used; specifically, chuanxiong is derived from the 'Chuanxiong' cultivar only.
