Perennial herb, up to 1m tall, native to the Western Mediterranean area; flowers yellow.

The plant is used to obtain a resin, opopanax: The thick rhizome or the lower portion of the stem are cut and the bleeding white resin dries in the air and turns yellowish brown. "In antiquity, panax or panacea was understood to be an ideal universal remedy for all conceivable diseases. 'Opo-panax' means a miracle cure in the form of a vegetable juice ('opós') or resin. The commercially available "Opopanax resin", however, is usually obtained from Commiphora erythraea, a relatives of the frankincense tree." \\
