Definition
A plant with an aromatic root, native to western North America, used traditionally by Indigenous peoples for medicine and food.
Etymology
Compound of balsam (aromatic resinous substance) + root (the underground part of a plant). The plant was named for the balsam-like fragrance and healing properties of its roots.
Kelly Says
Native Americans relied on balsamroot as a triple-threat plant: nutritious roots to eat, medicine for wounds, and even edible seeds—showing how one plant could sustain communities through seasons.
