Additionally, in Asian medicine, it's used for swelling and urinary tract infections. However, its effectiveness for all these conditions remains unconfirmed. Shepherd's Purse was introduced to America by the Pilgrims, who found that it would grow well in even the poorest soil. It is now found worldwide, except in tropical areas. The plant gets its name from the appearance of its flat seed pouch, which resembles a leather purse. It blooms almost year round with small, white flowers on a simple, upright, 16-inch stem.
