Panax (old Greek name, meaning all healing or a panacea). Araliaceae. A genus of seven or eight
species of hardy perennials none of which is of cultural importance except P. quinquefolium,
Linn., the Ginseng, which see (Vol. III). They have aromatic roots, digitately compound leaves
and greenish white flowers in a terminal umbel. They are all natives of the North Temperate
Zone, mostly in Asia and North American. For an account of the tender plants heretofore included
in this genus, see Polyscias.
The genus as now defined is distinguished by the thickish roots or tubers from which arise erect
simple short sts. bearing 1 whorl of 3 digitate lvs. which have 3 or 5 lfts.: umbels terminal
and solitary, simple, bearing small white or greenish polygamous fls.; calyx obscurely
5-toothed; petals 5, spreading; stamens 5, alternating with petals; styles 2 or 3 :fr. a 2- or
3-seeded little drupe. Two species are native in the eastern U. S. and Canada. P. quinquefolium,
Linn.( Ginseng quinque-folium, Wood. Aralia quinquefolia, Decne. & Planch.).
Ginseng, growing in rich woods Que. to Minn, and south to Ala.: about 1 ft. high from a more or
less branching thick root: lfts. usually 5, stalked, the basal pair much smaller than the
others, all ovate or obovate, dentate, acuminate: peduncle an inch or two long, bearing a
6-20-fld. umbel; styles usually 2: fr. bright red. P. trifolium, Linn. (Ginseng trifolium, Wood.
Aralia trifolia, Decne. & Planch.), Ground-nut (Fig. 2740), native in moist mostly low or flat
woods, Nova Scotia to Iowa and Ga.: delicate little plant about 6 in. high, with a deep globular
blackish tuber or root about ½ in. diam.: lfts. mostly 3, sessile, oval to oblance- olate,
obtuse, serrate: peduncles an inch or two long, bearing a few whitish often monoecious fls.;
styles usually 3: fr. 3-angled or 2-sided, yellowish. An attractive but not showy early spring
bloomer, suitable for colonizing in moist shady places.
