It prefers humid environments such as banks, beaches and shores of rivers. The characteristic of these flowers is that they bloom in the evening, hence the popular name of "Bella in the evening".
This plant is rich in unsaturated fatty acids present in the seeds capable of protecting the cell membrane, delaying the aging of the tissues. Cultivated by the Native Americans, its root was used as an anti -inflammatory for the treatment of swelling on the body.
