Burr Reed (Sparganium emersum) - Rhizome, Liquid Extract Tincture
This is an alcohol-based liquid extract (tincture) of the dried rhizome of Sparganium emersum, a bur-reed of the Typhaceae family. In traditional Chinese practice this rhizome is known as San Leng (Rhizoma Sparganii); the pharmacopoeial source is the closely related Sparganium stoloniferum.

This is Sparganium bur-reed (true San Leng) - a different plant from our separately listed San Leng (Scirpus fluviatilis), a river bulrush of the sedge family used as a traditional substitute (Jing San Leng), and from our Reed / Lu Gen (Phragmites communis), the common reed.
