In China's Shennongjia primeval forest, there are not only legends of "savages", but also countless kinds of rare plants. In particular, many kinds of Chinese herbal medicine are legendary, such as a flower with seven leaves, a bowl of water by the river, a bead on the head, and so on. Many people have heard of them but have never seen them. Today, let's talk about this rare bead on the top of the head. Its fruit and root can be used as medicine. It is of great value and is known as "Shennongjia holy medicine".

The scientific name of a bead on the head is "Trillium". It is a plant of the family Liliaceae, so it blossoms as white and beautiful as lilies. Trillium is easy to identify because it has 3 leaves and 3 flowers. It is very distinctive and unique. After ripening, the fruit of Yanling grass is a round black-purple fruit, just like a dazzling black pearl, because the fruit grows on the top of the plant, which is called "Tianzhu" and "a pearl on the head". Corresponding to the fruit is its root, commonly known as "ground bead".

In fact, the root of Trillium is not round, it has many small roots, but when people process medicinal materials, they are used to forming these fine roots into an oval shape, so they get the name of "ground beads". The most valuable thing about Trillium chinense is its fruit and root, which has the effects of stopping blood circulation, calming the nerves, relieving pain, detoxifying and removing rheumatism. People in Shennongjia forest area used to pick its fruits and roots to soak wine, but now Yancheng grass has become a third-class protected plant in the country, and mining is prohibited in nature reserves.

Because of its high medicinal value and ornamental value, people excavated a lot in the past, and its natural germination rate was relatively low, which led to its distribution becoming less and less. In addition, excessive deforestation in the forest in the past also destroyed the growing environment of Trillium, because it is a growing plant under the forest. After years of research by scientists, Trillium has been artificially cultivated for medicinal and other research.
