Wild ginseng grows best in moist, rich hardwood forests like those found in Georgia's Blue Ridge Mountains. Collectors are asked to select plants that have four or more leaf-prongs and abundant red berries, an indication that the plant is at least four years old.
American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius L.), the ginseng grown commercially in Canada, is a small, fleshy rooted perennial native to Eastern North America. Grown from seed, ginseng is typically harvested three to four years after its initial planting, when it is largely considered mature.ouple this with the fact that there is no revenue for a minimum of three years, which is the time it takes to grow a single crop, and it becomes less economically feasible for most growers. American ginseng has a broad habitat, from North Eastern Ontario and Quebec south to Louisiana and Arkansas.
