In my hometown in the countryside, many farmers mistakenly mistake red iris chrysanthemum for gastrodia elata.

The picture above is the red iris plant. Although it is not Gastrodia elata, its flowers are thousands of times more beautiful than Gastrodia elata.

Some farmers dig out its fruits and dry them in the sun. They are crystal clear and look like sesame .

Farmers don't understand, because they have never seen Gastrodia elata, so they think it is Gastrodia elata.

I was very happy to buy it for health maintenance with very little money. I bought Gastrodia elata for hundreds of yuan per catty for only tens of yuan per catty.

I will tell you clearly today, that is not gastrodia elata, but red agarwood.

Why is it called red daisy? Its fruit shape is very similar to red potato. It is Asteraceae .

After the fruit is dried, there are circles of spots, which really look like Gastrodia elata. The crystal clear color is the same as Gastrodia elata, there is no difference at all, and it is easy to be mistaken for Gastrodia elata.

However, there are still some differences between it and Gastrodia elata. There is no heron, nor the flat, curved shape of Gastrodia elata.

Some people spent dozens of yuan and were very happy. In fact, they did not know the sorrow of buying fake gastrodia elata.

Although it is not a medicinal material, it can be eaten as food. It is harmless and non-toxic. It is also harmless if you buy it. It's just not worth being happy about. No convenience was taken. It's just a small loss, so don't be angry. Being angry will cause more harm to the body and make it even less valuable.

Gastrodia elata is indeed a good health food for the elderly. If you buy the red gastrodia elata on the same day, you will really suffer a huge loss. I have delayed my health care and suffered a big loss of money. When I get angry after knowing this, I will suffer an even greater loss.

When eating gastrodia elata, you must eat real gastrodia elata. It is better to buy red sweet potato to eat red sweet potato chrysanthemum. Please remember this for the elderly. If you are greedy for cheap, you will still suffer a loss!
