About Ipomopsis multiflora (Nutt.) V.E.Grant
Ipomopsis multiflora, commonly called manyflowered gilia or manyflowered ipomopsis, is a short-lived perennial flowering plant. Among the Zuni people, this plant has several traditional medicinal uses. Powder made from the whole plant is applied to the face to cure headaches, and is also applied directly to wounds. Crushed blossoms of this species are smoked in corn husks to "relieve strangulation". Ipomopsis multiflora grows to a height of 15 to 50 cm (6 to 20 in), and its stems bear a mix of short and long hairs that are both glandular and unglandular.
