About Bobinsana
Bobinsana (Calliandra angustifolia) is a wet-tropical South American shrub or small tree in the Fabaceae family. Native across parts of Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia and northern Brazil, it is recognised for its distinctive pink-and-white powderpuff flowers and its association with moist tropical environments.
In Peru, Bobinsana is closely associated with Amazonian riverine habitats. Sacred Plants Australia supplies a single-ingredient fine bark powder sourced from Peru, wild harvested and packed in Australia in a resealable matte-black foil pouch designed to help protect the botanical material from light and moisture.
Bobinsana also has a longstanding place in Amazonian ethnobotanical traditions. Its botanical identity, provenance and cultural history give this remarkable plant a distinctive story that extends from the living shrub to the carefully prepared bark powder.
As a natural botanical material, colour, aroma, texture and powder density may vary slightly between harvests.
