Heen Bovitiya (Osbeckia octandra) is a treasured medicinal plant, found only in Sri Lanka. Renowned in traditional practices as a natural protector of the liver, it holds a special place in local herbal medicine. The plant is easily recognized by its vibrant purple flowers, often referred to as the 'Southern Flower' due to its prominence in the southern region of the island. While different varieties of Bovitiya exist across South Asia, the Heen Bovitiya species with its potent healing properties is uniquely Sri Lankan and highly valued for its therapeutic benefits.
