Phyla nodiflora, commonly known as turkey tangle frogfruit, is a low-growing, creeping perennial herb in the Verbenaceae family. Native to the Americas but widely naturalized in tropical and subtropical regions, it typically forms dense mats in lawns, gardens, and moist open areas. Recognized for its small, purple-tipped flowers and spreading stems, the plant has been used in traditional herbal practices for its mild anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties.
