A Myrrh tree is a small, thorny tree that produces aromatic resin, known as myrrh, which has been used for its fragrance and medicinal properties for centuries. The resin is harvested by making incisions in the bark of the tree, allowing the sap to ooze out and harden into tear-shaped droplets. Myrrh is commonly used in perfumes, incense, and traditional medicine.

Myrrh is an evergreen tree that is known for its medicinal value. It can be grown in Australia, Africa, India, and the Middle East.
Are you growing your tree outside? Myrrh trees need at least six hours of full sun each day. Remember that myrrh grows in arid regions. Do not over water. Mine grow in Los Angeles, an arid region. I added cactus mix to the soil. Also, it is normal for myrrh trees to lose their leaves in winter. Cut back on watering while the tree is in its winter dormancy.

Frankincense is harvested from the Boswellia tree, while myrrh comes from the Commiphora tree.

Myrrh comes from several trees/shrubs in the Commiphora family. The largest tree/shrub source is Commiphora myrrh. There are many other sources, including C. mollis, C. molul, C. ovalifolia and several others. Once the source is beyond the primary 3 or 4 types, it often is no longer necessarily called myrrh.
