Epilobium Herb — Epilobium angustifolium, Europe

Epilobium Herb (Epilobium angustifolium) — commonly known as Willow Herb or Fireweed — cut and sieved dried aerial herb, sourced from European growing regions. Epilobium angustifolium is a tall, flowering perennial herb widespread across temperate regions of Europe, Asia, and North America. It is recognisable by its tall spikes of vivid pink flowers and its narrow, willow-like leaves — the source of its common name Willow Herb. The plant grows abundantly in disturbed soils and cleared woodland areas, where it is often the first coloniser after fire events, giving rise to the North American common name Fireweed.

The dried herb has a mild, gently grassy and slightly earthy flavour with a subtle floral note — it is not strongly aromatic but integrates cleanly into botanical tea blends. It is used in loose leaf tea manufacturing, herb blend formulations, and botanical product applications across Europe and Australia. Cut and sieved to standard 3–8mm tea-grade specification. This product is sold as a food only. An organic grade (HTO.EPILK1) is also available separately.

Epilobium Herb — FAQs

Everything you need to know before you order.

Epilobium angustifolium, commonly called Willow Herb or Fireweed, is a tall flowering perennial herb widespread across Europe, northern Asia, and North America. It grows particularly abundantly in disturbed soils and post-fire landscapes — in North America it is well known as the first plant to colonise areas after bushfires, which explains its Fireweed common name. The name Willow Herb comes from the plant's narrow, willow-shaped leaves. The dried aerial herb (leaves and stem) is the part used commercially, cut and sieved to standard 3–8mm tea grade specification.
Epilobium has a mild, gently grassy and slightly earthy flavour with a subtle floral note — it is not strongly aromatic and does not have a dominant or assertive character. This makes it a useful supporting ingredient in herbal blends rather than a primary flavour driver. It integrates cleanly with other botanicals without competing. It is used in European herbal tea formulations, often combined with other mild herbs. As a tea ingredient, a standard 1–2 teaspoon infusion in hot water produces a pale, lightly coloured liquor with a gentle, clean grassy character.
