Bai Yang Shu Pi (白杨树皮), botanically identified as the dried bark of Populus species (white poplar), is a traditional Chinese herbal material known in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Bái Yáng Shù Pí.

Its nature is bitter and slightly cold, making it a cooling herb traditionally associated with the Stomach and Large Intestine channels.
