The plant grows between three and six feet, with a stem that is clustered with tiny white flowers. The medicinal root is best collected between late July and September." It was a favorite herbal remedy for Native Americans, who used it for a variety of ailments. The name cohosh is from the Algonquian tribe, and means rough, referring to the feel of the rhizome.
