Panax quinquefolius, commonly known as American Ginseng and often by its Chinese name Huaqishen or Xiyangshen, is an herbaceous perennial in the ivy family that is commonly used in medicine. It is native to eastern North America, though it also cultivated beyond its range in places such as China. The plant's forked root and leaves were traditionally used for medicinal purposes by Native Americans. Since the 1800s, the roots have been collected by "'sang hunters," and sold to Chinese or Hong Kong traders, who often pay very high prices for particularly old wild roots. American Ginseng was formerly particularly widespread in the Appalachian and Ozark regions, but due its popularity the wild plant has been overharvested, and is thus rare in most parts of the United States. It is also grown commercially, under artificial shade, in fields in Wisconsin and Minnesota, and usually harvested after three to four years when ripe. Many ginseng growers in Wisconsin are represented by the "Ginseng Board of Wisconsin", whose seal is often sought after on ginseng products to certify they are genuine. Ginseng is also widely grown in British Columbia and Ontario, Canada.
