Sour Orange Flower Whole (Citrus Aurantium)
Sour Orange Flower Whole (Citrus aurantium), also known as Bitter Orange Blossom or Zhi Zi Hua (枳壳花) in Traditional Chinese Medicine, is the fragrant dried flower of the bitter orange tree. Revered for its calming, aromatic, and mildly cooling nature, it has been used across various cultures for both its therapeutic and culinary value.
Traditionally, these blossoms are used to soothe the nerves, ease digestive discomfort, and gently regulate qi (energy). In herbal formulas, they are often included to address symptoms such as stress, restlessness, insomnia, or mild gastrointestinal upset—especially when these issues are linked to emotional tension or qi stagnation.
The flowers contain volatile oils like linalool and neroli, contributing to their delicate citrus-floral aroma and subtle therapeutic effects. In Western herbalism, orange blossom is known for promoting relaxation, mood balance, and heart ease, and is commonly infused into teas or floral waters.
Sour Orange Flower Whole (Citrus aurantium) is ideal for making calming teas, aromatic sachets, floral infusions, or tinctures, and may also be used externally in bath soaks or skin preparations. Each batch is carefully harvested and dried to retain its aromatic complexity and gentle herbal properties.
