Botanical Description
Shui Ta Gan is a minor folk-medicine name not catalogued as a headword in the principal modern Chinese Materia Medica references consulted, including Bensky and Gamble, the Chinese Pharmacopoeia and standard Zhong Yao Da Ci Dian entries. The literal sense ("water-pagoda-stem" or similar) suggests a wetland species, but no reliable correspondence to a botanical binomial can be established without further regional source material. Pending verified identification, no morphology, parts used or actions can responsibly be assigned.
