Answer
Ray, the common name for that herb is american ginseng.  You can find it in health stores and pharmacies everywhere.  The label directions would give you an idea of how much to take daily, but since yours wlil be fresh and dried, you may want to use it as a tea and drink 2 or 3 cups a day.  

You can find more information Im sure, using one of the search engines like google.

Hope this helps.
