Description
The Imperial Roseweald, also called the sanguine hibiscus, is a reddish-brown plant whose trumpet-shaped flowers are the colour of dried blood. It grows well in temperate climates, and if not carefully watched may end up taking over an entire herb garden. The thick, woody roots of the plant are prized for their medicinal qualities. Dark on the outside, pale on the inside, they must be carefully prepared as they are naturally poisonous.
Imperial Roseweald is easily confused with common roseweald. While the petals of that plant are often dried and used to make a tangy and flavoursome tea (popular both hot and cold), they have no medicinal properties. They are also a common component used in the preparation of sweets, jellies, and candies.
Properly applied, Imperial Roseweald can be used to remove venom. It is also useful for treating illnesses of the blood, including minor curses that thicken, slow, or cool the vital life-giving liquid.

An apothecary with access to an Wyrmstone Mortar can substitute two doses of imperial roseweald for a singe dose of bladeroot when preparing a potion.
