About Gervão
Gervão (Stachytarpheta jamaicensis) belongs to the vervain family, and Linnaeus first classed it as a vervain. Our bag holds the whole plant.
The name Gervão is also given to a close relative, Stachytarpheta cayennensis. Ours is S. jamaicensis, the species named on our label. More in our Gervão herb guide.
