Botanical Name: Withania somnifera
Country of Origin: India
Also Known As: Withania somnifera Root Powder, Winter Cherry Root Powder, Ashwagandha Powder
Part Used: Dried roots of Withania somnifera, finely milled into powder
Description: Ashwagandha Root Powder is made from the dried roots of Withania somnifera, a plant cultivated in arid and semi-tropical regions of India, the Middle East, and parts of Africa. The powder is characterized by its light beige to tan colour, smooth texture, and natural earthy aroma. Milling the dried roots into a fine, consistent powder creates a cohesive material suitable for dry formulations and creative botanical applications requiring uniform particle size.
Production begins with harvesting mature roots that have developed a firm, fibrous structure. The roots are thoroughly cleaned to remove soil and natural debris, then dried using controlled warm-air or shade-drying methods that preserve their natural appearance and structural integrity. Once fully dried, the roots are mechanically milled into a fine powder and passed through a sieve to achieve even granulation. The resulting material is a stable, free-flowing botanical powder composed solely of the root.
Uses: Ashwagandha Root Powder is used in crafting, botanical art, incense blending, resin work, natural pigment experiments, and educational herb projects.
Its fine texture allows it to integrate easily into dry mixtures, creative formulations, and display materials. The natural colour and uniform consistency make it well suited for artistic, decorative, and instructional applications that incorporate plant-derived powdered ingredients.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in an airtight container. Refrigeration not required.
