Stachytarpheta jamaicensis

''Stachytarpheta jamaicensis'' Is a species of plant in the Verbenaceae family, native throughout the Caribbean. It has many common names including blue porterweed, blue snake weed, bastard vervain, Brazilian tea, Jamaica vervain.〔(Germplasm Resources Information Network (GRIN) )〕 It is unclear whether ''S. indica'' is a separate species.〔(www.flowersofindia.net, Indian Snakeweed )〕 It is usually found along country roadsides and it grows also well as a ruderal plant on disturbed terrain. It is an invasive species in some places.〔(Stachytarpheta jamaicensis - Usambara Invasive Plants )〕
This plant can be also found on St. Croix, where it is locally known as "worryvine".
==Medicinal usage==
The fresh leaves are consumed in bush tea as a “cooling” tonic and blood cleanser, to treat “asthma” and “ulcerated stomachs”.〔Brian N. Becker, ''(Integration Of Medicinal And Culinary Herbs In An Agroforestry Combination On St. Croix, United States Virgin Islands )'' (PDF)〕
Tea brewed from this species has been shown to cause a dose-dependent "fall in () blood pressure" of normal rabbits. However, the tea has also been observed to cause a "mild non-dose dependent systematic toxicity" in various tissues throughout the body, "such as congestion, fatty changes, and necrosis in liver, blood vessels, kidney, lung and testis, but the brain, eyes, intestines and heart were essentially normal." 〔 〕
