Chlorophytum comosum (Thunb.) Baker is a perennial evergreen plant. The rhizome
grows flat or obliquely, and has many thick roots. The plant has the effect of purifying the
air, and the whole plant can be used as medicine.

Chlorophytum comosum (Thunb.) Baker has strong roots and short stems and slightly
thicker roots. The leaf is sword-shaped, 10-30 cm long and 1-2 cm wide, narrowing slightly
to both ends.

Chlorophytum comosum (Thunb.) Baker is a perennial root herb, with basal leaves, strip-
shaped to strip-lanceolate, long and narrow. The biggest feature of Chlorophytum
comosum (Thunb.) Baker is that mature plants will grow out of stems from time to time,
with a stem length of 30- At 60 cm, and small plants will grow at the apex. Scapes are
longer than leaves, sometimes up to 50 cm long, and often become stolons with leaf
clusters or young plants near the top.

Chlorophytum comosum (Thunb.) Baker has white flowers, often 2-4 clusters, arranged in
scattered racemes or panicles. Pedicels are 7-12 mm long, with joints located in the
middle to upper part. Pepals are 7-10 mm long, 3-veined; stamens slightly shorter than
tepals; anthers oblong round, 1-1.5 mm long, obviously shorter than filaments, often curled
after cracking.
