Origin & Sourcing

A Supporting Herb in Regional Blends

Capillary lysimachia (Lysimachia capillipes), known as pai cao, is a slender herbaceous plant gathered in Guangxi and Guizhou. Its dried herb has a mild, grassy aroma and works as a supporting note rather than a lead flavour.

It appears in southern Chinese hot pot and braising blends, often alongside ling xiang cao. Supply is small-scale and seasonal, typically traded in bales rather than containers of uniform grade.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to common buyer questions. For detailed technical data, please request our product brochure.

How does it differ from Chinese lysimachia?

Both are Lysimachia species used in similar regional blends. Capillary lysimachia is milder and grassier; Chinese lysimachia (L. foenum-graecum) is sweeter and more intense. They are usually used together rather than substituted for each other.

Is container-scale volume available?

Not on a regular basis. Supply is gathered in small lots by region, so we quote against actual available volume rather than a standing annual capacity.

What is the minimum order quantity for Capillary Lysimachia from China?

Our standard MOQ for Capillary Lysimachia is 1 MT per grade, so a buyer can run a trial lot through their own line before committing to a container. A 20′ container holds roughly 18–24 MT depending on product and packing; a 40′ FCL is quoted on the same basis.

Can I get a sample of Capillary Lysimachia before ordering a container?

Yes. 200 g–500 g samples of Capillary Lysimachia are supplied free of charge for evaluation; the buyer covers courier freight, or the sample can travel with the first shipment. Tell us the grade, packing form and destination and we cut the sample from the current lot.

How long does it take to ship Capillary Lysimachia from China?

Production runs 25–30 working days from order confirmation, depending on grade, packing and current stock. Capillary Lysimachia then moves to Qinzhou port, or the port you nominate; ocean transit is quoted per destination when freight is confirmed.

What payment terms do you accept for bulk Capillary Lysimachia orders?

We typically accept T/T (30% deposit, 70% against B/L copy) or L/C at sight for new buyers. Repeat buyers can move to negotiated terms after the first shipments.

Can you pack Capillary Lysimachia under my own brand?

Yes. Bag size, carton design and label content can follow your market's rules, and we send a dieline proof before the run starts. Custom packaging starts at 1,000 kg per design.

Which documents and test reports come with a Capillary Lysimachia shipment?

The standard set is COA, phytosanitary certificate, certificate of origin, commercial invoice, packing list and bill of lading. Pesticide residue, aflatoxin, heavy metal and microbiology reports for Capillary Lysimachia are issued by third-party labs such as SGS, Eurofins or BV on request. We do not hold an FDA facility registration; for US imports we support your importer's FSVP and prior-notice paperwork with batch-level documents.
