Native to Japan, Korea, and China, this beauty has fragrant flowers that only open at night. But don’t let the lovely lily-like flowers of the Anamarrhena Asphodeloides fool you. The roots of this small, ornamental plant have powers beyond the beauty and have been documented for their heat clearing properties dating back to 200 B.C. Also known as Zhi Mu, it is still a staple of Asian herbal medicine today.
