Henna (Lawsonia inermis) is a tropical shrub or small tree widely cultivated in Pakistan for its aromatic leaves, which are dried and ground into a fine powder to create a natural dye. It has small, fragrant white or pink flowers and thrives in warm climates. Henna leaves contain lawsone, a natural pigment responsible for the reddish-brown stain used in traditional body art and hair dye.
