Turnera Subulata ButtercupBlooms 🌸
It’s a beautiful species of flowering plant in the passionflower family of Passifloraceae. It’s known by the common names white buttercup, sulphur alder, politician's flower, dark-eyed turnera & white alder. Despite its names, it’s not related to the buttercups or the alders. It’s native to Central & South America, from Panama south to Brazil which is well known in many other places as an introduced species, such as Malaysia, Indonesia, several other Pacific Islands, the Caribbean & Florida in the United States.
A recent study researched found that yellow alder potentiated the antibiotic activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

Turnera ulmifolia is used to treat gastrointestinal problems (constipation, diarrhea), colds & flu, circulatory problems (heart palpitations), infant care (gripe), ob/gyn issues (menstrual cramps) & dermatological issues.
