Product Description

The Boswellia sacra, famously known as the Frankincense tree, is a hardy, slow-growing tree with a twisted trunk, papery, flaking bark, and delicate, aromatic foliage. Its small, compound leaves contrast beautifully with its clusters of creamy-white to pale yellow blossoms. This remarkable tree is best known for its resin, a fragrant substance treasured for centuries in incense, medicine, and perfumery. Thriving in dry, rocky terrain, Boswellia sacra endures extreme heat and minimal rainfall, making it a true survivor of harsh desert landscapes.
