How to Choose Your Mimosa Root Bark
MHRB powder is the most convenient choice for dye baths and soap because it is already milled. Shredded mimosa bark is a versatile middle ground, and whole bark suits people who prefer to cut or mill it themselves. Mimosa hostilis root bark is sold in sizes such as 100 g, 250 g, 500 g and 1 kg, and the price per kilo falls as the size goes up.
Brazilian vs Mexican Mimosa Hostilis Root Bark
Both come from the same species, Mimosa tenuiflora, which is also sold as mimosa hostilis. Choose Brazilian MHRB if you want powder, shredded or whole bark in smaller sizes, or Mexican mimosa root bark, known in Mexico as tepezcohuite, if you want whole inner bark by the kilo.

What Is Mimosa Hostilis Root Bark?
Mimosa hostilis root bark, often shortened to MHRB, is the inner bark from the roots of Mimosa tenuiflora, a thorny tree native to Brazil and Mexico. It is also known as jurema preta, black jurema, calumbi and tepezcohuite. Rich in tannins and natural pigments, it is valued by dyers, soap makers, leatherworkers and cosmetic brands.
The tree grows in dry regions such as the Caatinga of northeastern Brazil and in Chiapas and Oaxaca in southern Mexico. Sellers focus on the inner root bark because it holds the deep natural color that crafters look for, which is why you may also see it listed as mimosa inner root bark or simply mimosa bark.

What Is MHRB Used For?
MHRB is mainly used as a natural dye and tanning material, and as a colorant for handmade soap and natural cosmetics. Home crafters, dye studios, soap makers and leather workshops all use it.
Natural dyeing
Gives deep purples and browns, plus burgundy and mauve tones, on cotton, wool, silk and other fibers, from tie-dye to larger dye baths. See how to make dye from mimosa hostilis bark.
