Wild Dendrobium officinale mostly grows in the shade of cliffs. Ancient people collected it by slinging or shooting arrows from the cliffs. Wild Dendrobium officinale has been a fine tribute to the royal family since ancient times. Due to its scarce production and long-term over-exploitation by the public, wild resources were once on the verge of extinction. When choosing Dendrobium, you should check its color, observe its shape, smell its flavor, and chew its gelatin. The ones with iron color are of the best quality; the ones with tightly rolled shape and many circles are of the best quality; the ones with strong fragrance and a lot of gelatin when chewed are of the best quality. Among them, fragrance is the most important criterion for evaluating Dendrobium. In addition, the unit weight of Dendrobium can also reflect its quality. The heavier the unit weight of Dendrobium (that is, the heavier it is), the better the quality. However, due to the limited production of Dendrobium officinale and its high price, the market is flooded with a large number of Dendrobium officinale disguised as aquatic plants, especially in pharmacies. There are only a few brands of authentic Dendrobium officinale, such as Fulinmen Dendrobium officinale, Tongrentang (the price is slightly higher, about 1.5 times that of the former), etc. where you can buy real Dendrobium officinale.
