Sigesbeckia
Also called St Paul's Worts
Sigesbeckia is a genus of annual herbs in the daisy family, mostly weedy wild plants found across the tropics and some warm temperate areas. They are rarely grown as garden plants, and the key point is that they thrive in moist, disturbed ground.
Sigesbeckia is a genus of annual plants in the family Asteraceae, with a pantropical distribution and in some areas of Asia and South America also into temperate regions. St Paul's-wort or St. Paul's wort is a common name for some of the species. Sigesbeckia is widely distributed and has been traditionally used for the management of chronic diseases, including arthritis.
