Very little is known about traditional use of Zornia latifolia. A quote from Plants of the Gods (Schultes & Hofmann, 1992) stipulates that it was used by indigenous people in South America and Brazil. Experience from travelling in South America showed us that it is indeed known by indigenous and traditional people in Peru and Brazil.
Zornia latifolia is a perennial herb with stems of 20 to 50 cm long, glabrous or pubescent, with a prostrate growth habit and intense branching. Stipules lanceolate, striate, to 1 cm long. Leaves bifoliate. Leaflets lanceolate-oblong, acute at the apex, glabrous or pubescent, 1 to 4 cm long. Inflorescence a terminal peduncled spike, flowers alternate, 1 to 35 per inflorescence, bractlets stipuliform, to 1.5 cm long, nearly enclosing the flower. Calyx hyaline, 4 mm long, ciliate. Petals yellow, approximately 1 cm long. Pods two- to-eight jointed, shortly beaked, more or less spiny, pubescent, the inferior margin deeply crenate, the superior margin nearly straight, joints rounded, 2 to 3 mm long and wide (Pulle, 1976; Jutzi and Nosberger, 1984).
Our Zornia liquid extract is a mother tincture made with a 40% alcohol and has a 1:4 ratio. It's much stronger than what's usually available in herbal stores. And it's professionally made with love, care and knowledge over a long period of time in order to extract as much as possible from the plant.
