The printed label is headed Flora of North China and Peking Union Medical College; a handwritten line between the two headings is too faint to read. It gives the number L.2441, the collector J. C. Liu and the date Sept. 9, 1929.[2] The catalogue gives the province as Hopei.[1]
Recorded use
The label reads: Commonly cultivated for making the best kind of rope. 2 m high.[2] The catalogue leaves the note out.[1]

The sheet carries a single stem with a slender flowering spike and a few palmate leaves.[2] The label names the plant Cannabis sativa L.; E. Small confirmed the name in August 1975.[2][1]
