Justicia carnea then the African type is
Justicia carnear hooker

The Yoruba name of that plant is "Shorkor" I don't know if I got the spelling right.

the botanical is Celosia I can not remember the second name, worked with it during my undergraduate days.

Ciptretula Maliecyptrus

Beetobee:
I would love to know too. I boiled it-really red, and was told to mix with milk and malt. Instant blood tonic.

UPDATE: I just found out the name: justicia carnea. Also commonly called water willow or shrimp plant.

Thank you very much. The one I'm going looking through online is know as 'Kings Crown' or 'Brazilian Plume Flower'

It's called Justicia Secunda vahl

Dyt:
ricinus communis

Thank you very much

You won't find the answer here, dickheads everywhere.
All them don't know what you want to use it for, and you know it might be the cure for their sisters recurrent UTI, but stupidity won't let them learn .

Too bad those that scramble for the front page comments usually have nothing to contribute.

So true @the boldened. Thank you very much

Don't tell me that. You're attacking someone that needs an answer to a question.... Do you know who he is?

People like you will manage to collect five figures and start disturbing the whole neighborhood.

Sweetdream13:
its not calopogonium mucunoides(werepe in Yoruba) as commented by someone up there.
I will urge the op to check feedipedia for more detail research. or extensive Google search

Thank you very much

I thought they said WHO has given Nigeria millions of dollar to help fight Malaria and Typhoid fever. it's pathetic, the symptoms are always noticed here on nairaland. imagine simple Botanical name, some people are here talking rubbish thinking they're funny whereas they need to see their doctor.

Afamed:
OP , there are too many kids on Nairaland. They practically joke with everything. A simple goggle image search would have provided you the answer.
Clinacanthus Nutans

Thank you very much sir

mumu. From what do you think the oyinbo medicines are made?I guess na from akpu

Firstorderwizard:
The botanical name is Justicia carnea hooker. It has a very high concentration of antioxidants. Came across it during my pg research. I'm a biochemist though

Thank you very much. I'm getting it confused with Clinacanthus nutans though

felixawe:
Oga that leaf is very good to the body it served as blood tonic i have it in my compound is good to does that are in short of blood when you cook it is purely blood but i dont know the name

Exactly.. Thats why I'm looking for the name so I can go through previous literature review on it and probably do more research and add to knowledge. Thank you very much

Jaymaxxy:
Clinacanthus nutans

See better pikin , all of them above u na wash oo.

Jatropha Tanjorensis is the botanical name for the leaf.

Pubichairs:
Yorubas.. and their dreadful findings, take that shit at ur own peril

Very true.. It helps in blood cleaning too.

I have been trying to figure out and visualise the leaf but can't. If you're in Lag, can I come buy it? Have some issues with low PVC, I've taken blood tonic over time but there seems no significant improvement yet. I might try this herb

Justina carnea

Got to know it from a thread someone opened around february
