Petunia integrifolia (syn. Petunia violacea), the violet petunia[3] or violetflower petunia,[4] is a species of wild petunia with violet-colored blooms.[5][6] Petunia integrifolia is native to Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay.[7]
P. integrifolia bears flowers approximately 1.5 inch in diameter and the plant is typically smaller and harder to cultivate than the well-known hybrid bedding Petunia now known correctly as Petunia × atkinsiana.[8][9]
Taxonomy
[edit]The species was first described as Salpiglossis integrifolia by William Jackson Hooker in 1831.[10] It was transferred to the genus Petunia as P. integrifolia by Hans Schinz and Albert Thellung in 1915.[11] Petunia inflata had sometimes been considered to be a subspecies of P. integrifolia, but the two have different native ranges, with P. inflata growing in more northern areas.[12]
Hallucinogen
[edit]Petunia violacea Lindl. has been reported to be used as a hallucinogen in Ecuador, where the plant has the vernacular name shanín. The drug is said to cause sensations of levitation and flight – a type of hallucination often associated with the use of the antimuscarinic drugs such as the Atropa belladonna based flying ointments of Medieval and Early Modern Europe.[13] [14]
