Honeysuckle, also known as honeysuckle (scientific name: honeysuckle). The name honeysuckle comes from Compendium of Materia Medica. Because honeysuckle turns white first and then yellow, it is named honeysuckle. Honeysuckle. It is the dried bud or the first flowering flower of Lonicera japonica Thunb. [ 1]

Honeysuckle, which blooms in March, is five-flowered, slightly fragrant, with red pedicels, white flowers at first, and turns yellow after a day or two, hence the name. Also, because one stalk has two flowers, and two stamens are stretched out, they are inseparable in pairs, like a male and a female, and like a pair of dancing ducks, so they are called Yuanyang Teng. [2]

The most obvious feature of this species is that it has large leaflike bracts. The shape is somewhat like honeysuckle, but the bracts of this species are narrow rather than leaflike, the calyx tube is densely pubescent, and the branchlets are densely curled pubescent, which is obviously different from this species. The morphological variation of this species is great, no matter in the indumentum of branches and leaves, the shape and size of leaves, the length of corolla, the ratio of indumentum and lip to catheter, etc. However, all these changes seem to be more related to the ecological environment than to the geographical distribution.

Honeysuckle has been known as a good medicine for clearing away heat and toxic materials since ancient times. Sweet, cold, fragrant, sweet, cold, clear without hurting the stomach, fragrant can dispel evil. Honeysuckle can not only dispel wind and clear heat, but also be good at clearing blood poison. It can be used for various fevers such as body heat, rash, macula, toxic heat ulcer, sore throat, etc., with remarkable effect. [3]

Shandong honeysuckle base (2 sheets)

Shoots of honeysuckle. It is clean reddish brown, dense yellowish brown, hard, rough, glandular and pubescent, and the lower part is often hairless. The leaves are papery, ovate to oblong-ovate, sometimes ovate-lanceolate, sparsely ovoid or obovate, with few 1 to several obtuse notches [2], 3-5 cm long, pointed or tapered at the tip, few obtuse or slightly concave notches, coarse hairs at the round or nearly heart-shaped base, dark green at the top and light green at the bottom. The upper leaves of branchlets are usually dense and short, with rough sides. Petiole 4 ~ 8 mm long, densely pubescent.

The total pedicel is usually solitary in the axil of the upper part of the branchlet, equal to or slightly shorter than the petiole, 2 ~ 4 cm long in the lower part, densely covered with short and soft hairs, mixed with glandular hairs; Bracts are large, leaflike, ovate to elliptic, 2 ~ 3 cm long, pubescent or sometimes subglabrous on both sides; The tip of the bracteole is round or truncated, about 1 mm long, 1/2 ~ 4/5 of the calyx tube, with short coarse hairs and glandular hairs; The calyx tube is about 2 mm long and hairless, and the calyx teeth are oval triangle or Yangtze River Delta, with long hair at the top and dense hair on the outside and edge. Corolla is white, sometimes reddish at the base facing the sun, and then turns yellow. It is (2 ~) 3 ~ 4.5 (~ 6) cm long, lip-shaped, and the tube is slightly longer than the lip, rarely nearly the same length. The outer covering is a little inverted or semi-unfolded, with rough and long glandular hairs. The top of the upper lip lobe is blunt and round, and the lower lip is curved in a band. Stamens and styles are higher than corolla.

The bud is rod-shaped, thick on the top and thin on the bottom. Outside yellowish white or light green, densely pubescent. Calyx is small, yellow-green, with 5-lobed apex and hairy lobes. The open flower is tubular, with 2-lipped apex, 5 stamens, yellow pistil 1, and the ovary is hairless. The smell is fragrant and the taste is light and bitter. If the buds don't open, yellow or green, and the branches and leaves are free of impurities, it is better. [ 1]

The fruit is round, 6 ~ 7 mm in diameter, blue-black and shiny when mature; The seeds are ovoid or ovoid, brown, about 3 mm long, with 1 raised ridges in the middle and shallow transverse grooves on both sides. The flowering period is from April to June (autumn is also common), and the fruit ripens 10 ~ 1 1.
