Ligularia sibirica is the type species for the genus Ligularia and the family Asteraceae.[3] It is a 0.3-1.3 m tall perennial herbaceous plant, native to fens and damp places in Siberia, Central and Eastern Europe. Once fairly common, it has completely disappeared from many places in Europe, owing to drainage of wetlands.
