Where Is Epimedyum Found?

Epimedyum has a long history of use in traditional Eastern medicine.
According to legend, its name came about because a goat herder noticed his flock became sexually stimulated after eating the plant, That's why it is called "Horny Goat Weed".

The botanical name for horny goat weed is Epimedium. It’s also called yin yang huo, barrenwort, rowdy lamb herb, randy beef grass, and brain tonic of the immortals. The plant is native to parts of China, Japan, and Korea.

Today, it’s widely grown as an ornamental plant in many areas of the world, including the United States.
