Polygonatum /ˌpɒlᵻˈɡɒnətəm/,^[2] also known as King Solomon's-seal or Solomon's seal, is a genus of flowering plants.

The genus is distributed throughout the temperate Northern Hemisphere. Most of the approximately 63 species occur in Asia, with 20 endemic to China.

One explanation for the derivation of the common name "Solomon's seal" is that the roots bear depressions which resemble royal seals.

An herbal remedy called rhizoma polygonati is a mix of Polygonatum species used in traditional Chinese medicine. It is supposed to strengthen various organs and enhance the qi.^[4] Polygonatum is believed to be restorative to mental vitality, especially when the mind has been overworked, overstressed, or is in a state of exhaustion.

The cache is a "small" camoed pill bottle with a rolled log, held together with a rubber band, and a small zip lock plastic bag. Please BYOP and put the rubber band on your finger to keep track of it. The cache is tied in. FLLT permit: EH #01
