Hyptis capitata, also known as false ironwort or knobweed, is a species of erect annual shrub native to Florida, Mexico, Central America, the West Indies, and South America. It has since become naturalized in Australia, Southeast Asia, and some tropical islands. Growing up to 1.5 meters tall, it is considered a weed in many places. Crushed leaves of the plant are applied to cuts as a traditional remedy.
