What Is Mimosa Tenuiflora Root Bark?
It comes from the root bark of Mimosa tenuiflora, a plant native to parts of Mexico, Central America and South America.
The botanical material has a naturally rich appearance and contains naturally occurring plant compounds that make it particularly interesting for traditional craft and natural-colour applications.
Our product consists of shredded inner root bark, rather than a finely milled powder, making it a convenient option for customers who specifically prefer the shredded form.

Natural Dye & Craft Applications
One of the reasons Mimosa tenuiflora root bark attracts interest is its use as a natural plant material for colour experimentation.
Natural-dye enthusiasts can explore botanical materials such as root bark when working with suitable natural fibres and other craft materials.
Results can vary depending on the material being dyed, preparation technique, concentration, water conditions and other factors. Natural dyeing is therefore an excellent opportunity to experiment and develop your own techniques.
The shredded format also allows customers to work with the physical botanical material rather than starting with a finely powdered product.
Mimosa Tenuiflora Root Bark Powder
If you’re specifically searching for Mimosa tenuiflora root bark powder, it’s important to distinguish between powdered and shredded products.
This product is supplied as shredded inner root bark, not fine powder. If you require a powdered botanical material for an appropriate application, please check our product range for a separately listed powder product.
This distinction helps ensure you receive the format that best suits your intended project.

I didn’t think it would get to Australia so fast. 5 days from London to Sydney is incredible. The ‘Verified Reserve’ status is a nice touch, makes you feel like a VIP customer.
