Botanical Description

Lu Bian Qing ("roadside green") is a regional folk-medicine name not catalogued as a headword in the principal modern Chinese Materia Medica references consulted. Such names are often applied to several different roadside herbaceous species depending on locality, including various Plantago, Polygonum or Verbena relatives, so no single botanical binomial can be reliably assigned. Without verified identification, no morphology, parts used or actions can responsibly be given. The entry is therefore treated as botanically unidentifiable.
