Arraxosa

Arraxosa is a hardy, flowering shrub prized for its medicinal herbs properties. Known for its bunches of blue flowers, this plant thrives in temperate climates, especially in the cooler months. Arraxosa has long been used for its ability to stop bleeding and is a common remedy in regions where the plant is abundant.

Form and Appearance

Arraxosa is a gnarled and hardy shrub with a bushy, dense form. Its most striking feature is its vibrant blue flowers, which bloom during the cooler months. These flowers have broad petals and appear in clusters, making the shrub stand out in the otherwise muted landscapes of its native regions.

Habitat

Arraxosa thrives in temperate areas, particularly in open plains and woodland edges where the climate remains mild throughout the year. It prefers well-drained soils and moderate rainfall, blooming profusely when these conditions are met. The plant is commonly found in Great Forbin, particularly in the Northern Marches and Whitevale.

Geographic Distribution

Arraxosa grows extensively in Forbin, where it is most common in the Northern Marches and Whitevale. It blooms during Windrise and Lan Kulal, when the weather is cooler and rainfall is steady. Though rarer in other parts of the archipelago, it can be cultivated in regions with similar climates.

Uses

The blue petals of Arraxosa are highly valued in traditional medicine. When ground into a paste, they are used to create poultices that help stop bleeding. These poultices are common in the medical kits of healers and travelers alike, providing an effective treatment for wounds and injuries, particularly in cases of Bloodrot and other wound-related infections.
