Organic Marshmallow Root

Dried Marshmallow Root (Althaea officinalis)

Marshmallow root comes from a flowering plant native to Europe and Western Asia and has a long history of use in traditional botanical practices. The dried root has a light color and firm texture and is commonly prepared using slow, traditional methods.

Marshmallow root is typically used in long infusions or gentle decoctions as part of historical plant preparation techniques. Its unique texture and preparation style make it a popular choice for apothecary projects, botanical study, and learning-focused use rather than culinary applications.

This dried marshmallow root is carefully harvested and cut for ease of preparation, making it well suited for apothecary crafting, educational use, and traditional herbal preparation methods.

Often included alongside other roots and leaves in traditional apothecary study and botanical blends.
