Parietaria floridana, common name Florida pellitory, is a plant species native to the southeastern United States, the West Indies, and much of Latin America. In the United States , the heart of its range extends from Florida, to Georgia and North and South Carolina, with isolated populations reported in Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas , New Hampshire, Kentucky and Delaware.[2][3][4][5] Some populations in California have in the past been referred to as P. floridana but are now regarded as a separate species, P. hespera.[6][7][8]

Parietaria floridana is a branched herb growing up to 40 cm tall, sometimes running along the ground. Leaves are up to 3 cm long. Flowers are up to 4 mm across. Achenes are less than 0.9 mm long.[2][9][10][11][12][13][14]
