Goldenrod (Forsythia suspensa)

Goldenseal, also known as Forsythia suspensa, Weeping forsythia, Golden rain, Golden bells or Lian qiao, is a beautiful plant that is grown primarily for the flowers it produces in early spring. This ornamental plant originally originated in China but is now widespread across the world. Its yellow flowers are one of the first messengers of spring and can brighten up any garden aesthetically.

However, goldenrod is not only an ornamental plant, but is also an important ingredient in traditional Chinese medicine. The Chinese have been using it for centuries for its healing properties. An extract is obtained from the flower pod of the goldenrod flower, which is used, for example, to promote detoxification or to soothe, suppress inflammation and fight fever. Goldenseal is also very popular in the cosmetics industry. The flowers are used to produce oils and extracts that are used in skin creams, masks or shampoos. These products help to moisturise the skin, provide it with nutrients and help to improve its elasticity and resilience. It is therefore a plant that is not only a beautiful ornament in gardens, but also has a wide range of uses in medicine and cosmetics.
