Product details
Epimedium is a perennial, ivy-like, ground shrub that is native to China, Japan, and Korea. Epimedium koreanum is a member of the Berberidaceae family which includes barberry and Oregon grape root. Referred to as yin yang huo in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), epimedium leaf has been used for centuries for its beneficial properties. Also called horny goat weed, it is typically prepared as an infusion or extract.
Epimedium is an ivy-like ground shrub of the higher and drier areas of China and Tibet. It is in the same plant family as barberry and Oregon grape, and its first recorded use is circa 200 B.C.E. in China. The name of the herb in Mandarin, yin yang huo, roughly corresponds to "weed for licentious goat." Legend has it that a goat herder discovered the properties of epimedium by observing his billy goats' uncontrollable sexual appetites after they grazed on the herb.

Hi there, Jonathan! Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that the Epimedium Leaf you received was not what you were hoping for. The dried herbs that we offer are considered “raw agricultural commodities” like fruit or vegetables you would find in a farmer’s market or grocery store.
Each harvest is different, and there can be fluctuations in how leafy or stemmy a plant may be for that year. In addition, the image found on our product page is reflective of the lot we are offering. We understand that every person has their own preferences and for this reason, we do offer a 30-day return policy should you wish to return it for a refund. You can find the details here: https://mountainroseherbs.com/return-policy/ Please do not hesitate to reach out if there is anything else we can assist with. Best wishes! ~ Erin
