ORNAMENTAL HYPERICUM IN CHINA

Abstract

There are 55 species and 8 subspecies of Hypericum native to China. In addition to ornamental value, other indigenous uses are documented when we conducted the ethnobotanical interviews. Some values are not recorded in literatures, such as substitute for tea, and use for oral healthcare. Five native species ( H. ascyron , H. choisianum , H. elliptifolium , H. kouytcheouense , and H. stellatum ) are recommended based on their higher ornamental values. Some suggestions on their protection and development are proposed.
