Part Used: Dried bark of Cornus florida
Description: Dogwood Bark C/S is prepared from the bark of Cornus florida, a deciduous tree native to eastern North America. The tree is recognized for its smooth grey-brown bark and compact growth habit, and the bark is harvested from mature branches to ensure consistent thickness, colour, and botanical quality.
After harvesting, the bark is carefully cleaned to remove surface debris and any remaining wood fragments. It is then dried using controlled air-drying or low-temperature methods to reduce moisture while preserving the natural brown to reddish-brown colour and fibrous texture of the bark.
Once fully dried, the bark is cut and sifted into uniform pieces. The finished dogwood bark C/S consists of firm, irregular fragments with a consistent appearance, making it suitable for blending, storage, and a wide range of botanical applications.
Uses: Dogwood Bark C/S is used in tea-style infusions, botanical craft projects, decorative herb displays, and educational herb kits. It is also suitable for cosmetic formulations, natural dye work, and creative applications where dried bark material is valued for its texture, earthy colour, and distinctive botanical character.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in an airtight container.
