Product Name: DOGWOOD C/S
Botanic Name: Piscidia Piscipula
Piscidia piscipula, commonly named Florida fishpoison tree, Jamaican dogwood or Fishfuddle, is a medium-sized, deciduous, tropical tree endemic to southern Florida, the Florida Keys, Texas, West Indies, and Latin America.[2] Native Americans of the West Indies discovered extracts from the tree could sedate fish, allowing them to be caught by hand.[2] This practice led to the tree's common names - fishpoison and fishfuddle. The tree has medicinal value as an analgesic and sedative.
Florida fishpoison tree has long been used in traditional medicine for treating nervous conditions and pain. Recent scientific studies in animals suggest that bark extracts have potential for their anti-inflammatory, sedative, and anti-spasmodic effects.
