Paracress – Spilanthes oleracea

Spilanthes oleracea is an older name associated with Acmella oleracea, a member of Asteraceae. Its compact yellow to orange flower heads contrast with the broad foliage. In warm humid conditions it can persist as a perennial, while cooler-climate assortments often treat it as a seasonal herb. Moisture and drainage both matter.
