They sell the root, too, of course, but they try for sustainable wildcrafting, and for cultivated. The relevant part from their website (http://www.blessedherbs.com/frame2.html): w = wildcrafted org = certified organically grown herbs * = indicates herbs that are of good quality, but growing conditions cannot be verified Common Name Source from 1-4 lbs. per lb. Ginseng Leaf w 25.00 Ginseng Root Whole American Wild Premium w 750.00 American Wild Average w 700.00 American Wild Woodsgrown * 135.00 Korean Ginseng Root Pdr * 80.00 Prices in USD, and those are USD lbs. That ginseng leaf was American ginseng, P. quinquefolius, back in 1998, but you can always ask them for details. They're still small enough to know where each lot is from. Excellent quality. (No commercial interest on my part). If you do decide to order from them take powdered garlic and powdered cayenne as well, wheee! Their powdered garlic is -stunning-; it's dried without heat.
