Also Known As: Turnera diffusa Powder, Ground Damiana Leaves, Damiana Herb Powder
Part Used: Ground dried leaves of Turnera diffusa
Description: Damiana Leaves Powder is produced from the dried leaves of Turnera diffusa, a small shrub native to Mexico, Central America, and parts of South America. The plant develops oval-shaped, aromatic leaves that are harvested at full maturity to ensure consistent size, colour, and botanical integrity before processing.
After harvesting, the leaves are thoroughly cleaned to remove stems, dust, and field debris. They are dried using controlled air-drying or low-temperature methods to reduce moisture while preserving the natural green to olive colour and leaf structure. Once fully dried, the leaves are finely ground to create a smooth, uniform powder.
The finished damiana leaf powder is light to medium greenish-brown in colour with a fine, free-flowing texture. The uniform particle size supports easy blending, accurate measuring, and stable storage, making it suitable for a wide range of culinary and creative formulations.
Uses: Damiana Leaves Powder is used in tea-style infusions, beverage blends, botanical craft projects, decorative herb displays, and educational herb kits. It is also suitable for cosmetic formulations, handmade soaps, bath products, and creative applications where finely ground leaf material is desired for texture, colour, and botanical presentation.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in an airtight container.
