Qingmuxiang (Aristolochiae Radix) was native to valleys in Yongchang. Since Yongchang ceased tribute supply, it is now imported via foreign ships. One plant has five roots, one stem has five branches, one branch has five leaves, and there are five nodes between leaves, hence also called "Wuxiang" (Five Fragrances); when burned, its smoke rises to the ninth heaven. Ancient formulas include Wuxiang Lianqiao Tang (Five-Fragrance Forsythia Decoction) for treating carbuncles and ulcers. The Qingmuxiang known today is actually the root of Aristolochia manshuriensis (Matoudiling). Su Song stated: "Now only available via Guangzhou imports, nowhere else produced." Li Shizhen stated: "Muxiang is found in southern regions, specifically the current Huguang Muxiang. It resembles dried bone; those with a bitter taste and sticky texture are of good quality."
