In the growth of 3-4 leaves when transplanting, according to the 33cm spacing points, each point on 3-4 strain. Analysis of propagation: except in winter cultivation, according to the 33cm spacing points, each point on 3-4 strain. Division reproduction: except in the winter when weeding, picking with rooting stolons planted outside, still can be in second years 2-3 months of seedlings planted. To create the pleasant shade environment, broad bean, pea, corn can be kind to.

Pharmacological action [ ]
1: antitussive effects of various extracts, such as acid alcohol extract of flavonoid glycosides, total acid, phenol, crystallization of ( steroid ) and saponin, gave the mice have a certain effect on relieving cough, removing flavone total acid phenol is no antitussive ( cough induced by ammonia water spray ), flavonoids antitussive effect better, 2.5mg / only intraperitoneal injection of the antitussive effect with codeine 0.4mg / only person similar.
2, expectorant effects: acid alcohol extract, flavonoid glycosides, total acid, total alkaloid and crystallization of phenol to mice have certain expectorant effect ( phenol red method), saponins and expectorant effects were not significant.
3 antiasthmatic effects: acid alcohol extract of flavonoid glycosides, and total alkaloids to guinea pig peritoneal injection, have a certain ( antiasthmatic effects of histamine and acetylcholine in spray method ), and flavonoid glycosides had the best effect, 250mg / kg equal to 125mg / kg effect of aminophylline.
