Centratherum punctatum

Centratherum punctatum, commonly known as Brazilian bachelor’s button or lark daisy, is a herbaceous perennial or annual plant in the Asteraceae (sunflower) family. Native to tropical regions of the Americas, it has naturalized in various parts of the world, including Asia, Africa, and Australia. This plant is characterized by its upright, branching stems and fragrant, simple, toothed leaves that sometimes have a pineapple scent when crushed. It produces distinctive, fluffy, button-like flower heads in shades of lavender-blue to purple, which bloom from spring through fall, attracting pollinators like bees and butterflies.

Centratherum punctatum is often cultivated as an ornamental plant in gardens and containers for its attractive foliage and long-lasting flowers. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, with moderate watering needs. In warmer climates (USDA Zones 10-12), it can behave as a perennial, while in cooler regions, it is typically grown as an annual. The plant can self-seed and may spread to form a ground cover. Beyond its ornamental value, Centratherum punctatum has traditional medicinal uses in various cultures, including applications for wound healing, pain relief, and as an ingredient in hair and skincare preparations. Some studies also suggest it possesses antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties.
