Tragia cordata, commonly called the heartleaf noseburn,[1] is a species of herbaceous plant in the spurge family. It is native to North America, where it is found scattered in the southeastern United States.[2] Its natural habitat is in rocky calcareous woodlands and prairies.[3]
This species is notable for its intensely painful stinging hairs.[4] It is readily distinguished from other Tragia in the east by its vining habit and large heart-shaped leaves.[3][5] It produces small green flowers in the summer and early fall.[4][5]
