Korean ginseng originally grew only in the mountain forests of China and Korea. The plant is about 60-80 cm high and at its tips there are finger-like leaves which open up like a hand. The root has an almost human form and this is how ginseng received its name: “ginseng“ which derives from the Chinese “jen shen“ which is translated as “human root“.
The name “Panax“ stems from the Greek language and means “all-healing“. It is referred to as “true“ ginseng because, from the medical perspective, it is by far the most valuable of all of the varieties of ginseng. In Germany, only preparations from the true Korean ginseng are licensed as a medicine. FloraFarm only cultivates and sells this variety.
