Comments: Native, Beautiful fruit which birds love, and nectar source for butterflies
Nashia inaguensis, commonly called Moujean tea, Bahamas Berry, or Pineapple Verbena, is a shrub native to the Bahamas. It is much branched, with tiny leaves that are aromatic when crushed. The young stems are red, becoming gray-brown. The tiny, fragrant white flowers are followed by small orange fruits nestled among the glossy leaves. We have found that the Atala butterflies and many others find Moujean tea hard to resist when in bloom. Grow in full sun. It is very drought tolerant once established.
It is native to the east Caribbean islands, in particular the island of inagua in the Bahamas, after which the species is named. In its native environment, the plant crawls along sunny, rocky outcroppings, semi-protected from steady high winds.
It is a loose, spreading shrub with many branches,The flower-heads are axillary, The fragrant foliage and tiny white flowers are highly attractive to pollinators, in particular the Atala butterfly.
Cultivation and uses
It is often used as a bonsai plant due to its miniaturized features. The flowers form in clusters and are followed by reddish orange berries. It prefers full sun, warmth (a minimum temperature of 5 C) and must be kept under high humidity. Even a brief spell of dryness can kill the plant. It can be propagated from cuttings, preferably in the spring and early summer during warm nights. A decoction of the fragrant leaves, variously described as having the scent and flavor of citrus, vanilla, or pineapple, is used as an herbal tea.
