English Name: Echinacea Purpurea Root Powder

Part Used: Ground dried roots of Echinacea purpurea
Description: Echinacea Purpurea Root Powder is produced from the dried roots of Echinacea purpurea, a perennial flowering plant native to eastern and central regions of North America. The plant develops a thick, fibrous root system that is harvested at full maturity to ensure consistent colour, texture, and botanical quality before processing.
After harvesting, the roots are thoroughly cleaned to remove soil, fine rootlets, and debris. They are then sliced and dried using controlled air-drying or low-temperature methods to reduce moisture while preserving the natural tan to light brown colour and fibrous internal structure of the roots.
Once fully dried, the roots are finely milled into a smooth, uniform powder. The finished echinacea purpurea root powder is light to medium brown in colour, free-flowing, and finely textured, allowing for easy blending, accurate measuring, and long-term storage.
Uses: Echinacea Purpurea Root Powder is used in tea-style infusions, herbal beverage blends, culinary spice mixes, botanical craft projects, and educational herb kits. It is also suitable for cosmetic formulations, natural dye work, bath products, and creative applications where finely ground root material is desired for texture, colour, and botanical presentation.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in an airtight container. Refrigeration not required.
