Commonly known as Ardushi or Vasaka, this small evergreen shrub is found across India. It features lance-shaped leaves and white flowers often tinged with purple. In Ayurveda, it is traditionally valued for its effectiveness in treating respiratory ailments due to its bronchodilator and expectorant properties.
