Jurema Preta

Mimosa Hostilis Root Bark Powder/Jurema Preta (Mimosa tenuiflora) (Tepezcohuite) is a large, deciduous tree with a fast-growing habit.

Native to Central and South America, it is commonly found in dry tropical forests. The small leaves are bipinnate, and white or pink flowers appear in clusters during the summer months.

Jurema Preta is also known for its timber, which is used in furniture and wood construction. Jurema Preta is one of the many names for mimosa hostilis. We source all of our bark from Chiapas, Mexico.
