"Herbs and Roots, along with a select few mineral and animal curios, are the most important elements in traditional hoodoo . They are used as the basis for all manner of oils , powders , incenses , washes , perfumes , mojo hands , spell bottles , and tricks laid down to be walked over -- and for this reason, Southern conjures are called 'root doctors' and when folk jinx their enemies they 'put roots on them.' In fact, 'rootwork' is a synonym for hoodoo in much of the country." -- "Hoodoo Herb and Root Magic
Generally the green herbs will completely stuff full one of our 3" x 5" packets, while brown roots will have about half that volume, due to their greater density and the fact that the plants must be sacrificed in order to gather the roots. Some rare and slow-growing roots (such as Ginseng and Golden Seal) will be supplied in very small quantities, yet still sufficient to perform a spell or add them to a mojo bag .
Any rare roots which are sold whole only and weigh out to more than the standard price for herbs are listed below in the separate category called Special Whole Root Curios .
