Botanical Name: Hypercium Perforatum

Origin: Bulgaria 

English Name: St. John’s Wort Powder

French Name: Poudre de Millepertuis

Also Known As: Hypericum Powder, St John’s Wort Herb Powder, Tipton Weed Powder

Part Used: Aerial parts (leaves, stems, and flowering tops) of Hypericum perforatum

Description: St. John’s Wort Powder is produced from the aerial parts of Hypericum perforatum, a perennial flowering herb native to Europe and Western Asia and now naturalised in temperate regions worldwide. The plant typically grows between 30 and 90 centimetres tall, with upright stems supporting small, oval green leaves marked with tiny translucent oil glands. Bright yellow flowers appear in clustered tops during early to mid-summer, each with five petals and prominent stamens. Leaves and flowers are harvested at full maturity to ensure optimal colour, structure, and botanical integrity before processing.

After harvesting, the aerial parts are carefully cleaned to remove dust, stems, and natural debris. The material is then dried using controlled air or low-temperature methods to preserve the natural green leaf colour and delicate yellow floral components. Once fully dried, the plant material is finely milled into a smooth, uniform powder that retains the characteristic colour, aroma, and identifiable features of Hypericum perforatum. The milling process ensures even particle size, easy handling, and stable storage while maintaining the botanical identity of the herb.

The finished St. John’s Wort Powder is a soft, finely textured powder with a uniform light green to pale yellow-green colour. The powder is lightweight, free-flowing, and stable over time, offering a convenient format for blending, measuring, and incorporating into various preparations while preserving the natural characteristics of the original herb.

Uses: St. John’s Wort Powder is commonly used in tea-style infusions, powdered herbal blends, and beverage formulations where a smooth, fine texture is preferred. It is also suitable for cosmetic and bath products, botanical sachets, craft projects, and educational botanical displays demonstrating flowering aerial plant structure. The powder allows for easy blending with other botanicals, accurate portioning, and versatile use in both home and professional applications. Its finely milled texture ensures consistent colour, smooth incorporation, and visual uniformity while maintaining the authentic identity of Hypericum perforatum.

Storage: In a cool, dry place, in a dark bottle,
