Tie Pi Shi Hu Dendrobium Flower Tea 12g Dried Huoshan Dendrobium Blossoms for Daily Herbal Infusions

Dendrobium Flower Tea, known in TCM as Tie Pi Shi Hu Hua (铁皮石斛花), is the dried blossom of Dendrobium officinale, a prized orchid traditionally sourced from the Huoshan region of Anhui. In TCM theory, the flower is considered gently cooling with a light sweet flavor, traditionally associated with nourishing yin and clearing mild internal heat. These carefully selected dried flowers are suited for daily herbal infusions and culinary use, and are not a substitute for medicine.
