American Ginseng
Starting at $12.50
Our American Ginseng (Panax quinquefolius) seed is fully stratified and ready to plant, giving you a strong start in growing this valuable and revered medicinal herb. Native to the shaded woodlands of North America, American ginseng is prized for its calming, adaptogenic properties—supporting stress management, immunity, energy, and mental clarity.
Beyond its health benefits, American ginseng has long been one of the most profitable native herbs in the U.S., with mature wild-simulated roots often commanding high prices on the herbal market. With patience and proper care, ginseng is typically ready for harvest in its fifth to sixth year, when the roots have reached full maturity and peak value.
Whether you’re growing for your own use or looking ahead to a future harvest, planting ginseng is a slow, steady investment in both the land and your health. Best results come from planting in rich, well-drained soil with 70% or more shade—conditions that mimic its native forest habitat. Approximately 480 seeds per oz.
