Boswellia carteri, commonly known as frankincense, is a resin derived from the Boswellia tree. This tree is native to the Horn of Africa, the Arabian Peninsula, northeastern Africa, and parts of India. The resin, which exudes from the bark of the tree, has been highly valued for thousands of years for its aromatic and medicinal properties. Boswellia carteri is primarily produced in Somaliland, in the Horn of Africa. This region is known for its ideal climate conditions, which support the growth of Boswellia trees.
