What is willow bark?
The Black Willow or Salix nigra is a medium-sized deciduous tree, the largest North American species of willow, growing from 10-30 m tall with long, alternating, shiny green and narrow lanceolate leaves. Although named Black Willow, the bark of most specimens is dark brown or gray, becoming fissured on older trees. Derived from the bark of the black willow tree, willow bark has been used for centuries to soothe irritated skin.
