According to legend, the Sichuan Hundred Herb Hall prescription transcript [Qing Dynasty Qianlong years (1736 ~ 1795)] in the treatment of money grass "yellow sand jaundice" records, so far at least more than two hundred years of application history.

Three, the stem is soft, lying extension, 20-60 cm long, glabrous, sparsely hairy to not densely ferruginous multicellular pilose, the young part is densely brown sessile glands, the lower internodes are short, often send out adventitious roots, the middle internodes 1.5-5 (10) cm long. Leaves opposite, ovate-orbicular, suborbicular to reniform, (1.5) 2-6 (8) cm long, 1-4 (6) cm wide, apex acute or rounded to rounded, base truncate to shallowly cordate, slightly thicker when fresh, with densely hyaline glandular strips visible in the light, the glandular strips turning black in the drying time, both surfaces glabrous or densely strigose; petiole shorter than or subequal to leaf blade, glabrous to densely hairy.

IV. Flowers solitary in leaf axils; pedicel 1-5 cm long, usually not exceeding leaf length, indumentum as stem, ± brown sessile glands; calyx (4) 5-7 (10) mm long, divided nearly to base, lobes lanceolate, elliptic-lanceolate to linear or slightly enlarged distally and subspatulate, apex acute or slightly obtuse, glabrous, pilose, or only margins ciliate; corolla yellow, 7-15 mm long, basal connate part longer than base, glabrous to densely strigose.
