What is Ye Ying Pi?:

The bark is used medicinally; it is harvested off live trees at intervals by cutting strips of it that are not so big as to damage the entire living tree. The bark strips are then usually processed commercially for cough syrup; in TCM, the bark can be ground up or decocted for use as medicine.
