What this material is, how to read the report that comes with it, and what the law says where you are.
Mimosa Hostilis Root Bark: A Dyer's Handbook
Mimosa hostilis root bark is the inner bark of the root of Mimosa tenuiflora, a fast-growing tree of north-eastern Brazil and southern Mexico. Dyers buy it for one reason: it is unusually rich in tannin, and tannin on protein fibre gives purple. It is sold by the pound in three cuts.
GuideHow to Read a Certificate of Analysis for Root Bark
Check four things in this order: does the batch code on the report match the bag in your hand, when was it tested, is the laboratory accredited for those tests, and does the report cover species identity and contaminants such as heavy metals and microbes. A report that fails the first check describes different material.
