Description
Carry Me Seed is a small herb, usually under 30 cm tall, with numerous small oblong-elliptic or squarish leaves, glabrous, about 6-12 mm long. Yellow flowers are very small, and hang down in beautiful array hidden below the leaves. The flowers produce very small (2mm) fruits that burst open and the seeds are hurled away. This characteristic has inspired many of its common names. When the plants are picked, the feathery leaves fold in, completely closing themselves.
Medical Benefits:
Good for body Heat, Fever, Dysentery, Diabetes Mellitus and Indigestion.
