[Morphological characteristics]

Licorrhiza is a perennial herb, 30~100 cm high. The whole body is covered with white pubescence and glandular hairs. Above-ground stem erect, lignify below, branchlet has angulate, green. The leaves alternate and are odd-numbered compound leaves. Leaflets 3~8 pairs, oval or ovate-elliptic, entire margin, apical leaflets larger. Racemes, axillary, pedicels very short, with an ovate bracteole below base, calyx campanulate, green, corolla butterfly, violet or blue purple flower. The fruit is a pod, narrowly rectangular, curved into a sickle-shaped or semi-annular, brown, densely spiny tomentose. Seeds 5 - 8, oval and slightly flat, smooth surface, brown.

[Suitable environment]

Licorices are light-loving, cold-resistant, drought-tolerant, barren and resistant to low temperatures of-10℃. Because licorice is a deep-rooted plant, the place with high groundwater level is not suitable for growth, and it is easy to cause rotten roots and dead seedlings. Sandy loam soil is good, clay soil and poor drainage of the low concave land is not suitable for cultivation of licorice.
