DESCRIPTION:
Lycoris Radiata Herb Extract Powder is a powdered form of the extract obtained from the Lycoris radiata herb, also known as the Red Spider Lily or Hurricane Lily.
This herb is native to East Asia and has been used in traditional medicine for its potential health benefits.
The powder is typically made by extracting the active compounds from the herb using solvents such as water or ethanol.
The extract is then processed and dried into a fine powder form.
Lycoris Radiata Extract is known for its potential antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties.
Spider Lily (Lycoris Radiata) Extract may also have benefits for promoting blood circulation, relieving pain, and supporting liver health.
This herbal extract powder is commonly used in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, cosmetics, and herbal supplements.
Spider Lily (Lycoris Radiata) Extract can be used as an ingredient in formulations such as capsules, tablets, creams, lotions, and serums.
Lycoris radiata, known as the red spider lily, red magic lily, corpse flower, or equinox flower, is a plant in the amaryllis family, Amaryllidaceae, subfamily Amaryllidoideae.
Spider Lily (Lycoris Radiata) Extract is originally from China, Japan, Korea and Nepal[1] and spread from there to the United States and elsewhere.
Spider Lily (Lycoris Radiata) Extract is considered naturalized in Seychelles and in the Ryukyu Islands.
Spider Lily (Lycoris Radiata) Extract flowers in the late summer or autumn, often in response to heavy rainfall.
The common name hurricane lily refers to this characteristic,[5] as do other common names, such as resurrection lily;[5] these may be used for the genus as a whole.

Lycoris radiata is a bulbous perennial with showy, bright-red flowers.
When in full bloom, spindly stamens, likened to the image of spider legs, extend slightly upward and outward from the flower's center.[6]
The flowers of the plant generally appear around late August to early September, before the leaves fully develop, on scapes rising 30–70 centimetres (12–28 in) from the ground.
Four to six 2-inch long flowers, arranged in umbels, perch atop each plant stalk.
[7] Individual flowers are irregular, with narrow segments which curve backwards.
[8] The leaves, which tend to emerge in October, are a greyish-green color, parallel-sided, 0.5–1 cm (1⁄4–3⁄8 in) wide and feature a paler central stripe.
The plant retains its leaves throughout the winter season, but will begin to shed them away as temperatures start to warm in late spring.[7]
Taxonomy
The presumed original form of Lycoris radiata, known as L. radiata var. pumila, occurs only in China.
Spider Lily (Lycoris Radiata) Extract is a diploid, with 11 pairs of chromosomes (2N = 22), and is able to reproduce by seed.
Triploid forms, with 33 chromosomes, are known as L. radiata var. radiata.
These are widespread in China and also in Japan, from where the species was introduced into cultivation in America and elsewhere.
The triploid forms are sterile, and reproduce only vegetatively, via bulbs.
The Japanese triploids are genetically uniform.
Spider Lily (Lycoris Radiata) Extract has been suggested that they were introduced into Japan from China along with rice cultivation.[9]
In phylogenetic analyses based on chloroplast genes, Hori et al. found that all the other species of Lycoris they examined were nested within Lycoris radiata.
They suggest that the "species" of Lycoris presently recognized may not be distinct.[9]
Cultivation
All plant species belonging to the genus Lycoris, including L. radiata, are native to East Asia.[10]
The plant was first introduced into the United States in 1854 following the signing of the Treaty of Kanagawa, a peace treaty brokered between the United States of America and Japan which effectively opened up Japanese ports for trade with the U.S.[11]
It is alleged that Captain William Roberts, a botany enthusiast and an ally of Commodore Matthew Calbraith Perry of the U.S Navy, returned to the U.S with only three bulbs of the red spider lily from this travels abroad.[12]
The bulbs were then planted by his niece who found that they did not bloom until after the first good rain in the fall season. L. radiata has since become naturalized in North Carolina, Texas, Oklahoma, and many other southern states of the US. Since the Japanese variety of L. radiata is a sterile triploid, the introduced plants were also sterile and could only reproduce via bulb division.
Today, red spider lilies are appreciated as ornamental and medicinal plants in various countries all across Asia, Europe and in the United States.[10]
Before being placed into the ground, L. radiata bulbs should be stored in a dry environment between 7–13 °C (45–55 °F).
The bulbs are ideally planted during the spring in rich, well-drained soil (e.g. sandy with some clay), 20 cm (8 in) deep and 15–30 cm (6–12 in) apart from one another.
When possible L. radiata ought to be placed in plots that either receive ample sunlight or are partially shaded.
Once planted, the bulbs are best left undisturbed.[13]
Lycoris radiata is not frost-hardy in countries like England, and so can only be grown under glass or in a very sheltered environment.
In warm-summer climates such as the U.S. east of the Rocky Mountains, where there is sufficient summer heat to harden off the bulbs, the plants are hardy to around −18 °C (0 °F).
Like other plants in the genus Lycoris, L. radiata remains dormant during the summer season, flowering on leafless scapes once the summer begins to transition into the fall.
[10] Red spider lilies are sometimes referred to as magic lilies because It is said that the radiant red flowers appear to bloom "magically" from their unremarkably bare stalks.
Furthermore, in the environments in which they are commonly grown, L. radiata tend to bloom in step with the coming of the rainy season, and or the coming of the hurricane season, as well as the fall equinox.
As such, spider lilies are also known as hurricane lilies or equinox lilies
Spider lily, autumn-flowering bulbous plant from China and Japan, related to Nerine.
The four to eight deep-red flowers form a umbel.
The leaves appear after flowering and remain on the plant all winter.
It needs a warm dry dormant period during summer to flower in autumn.
