Premna odorata, the fragrant premna, is a species of flowering plant in the Lamiaceae family.[2] It is native to the Indian subcontinent, Yunnan, Southeast Asia, New Guinea, and northern Australia, and naturalized in southern Florida.[3]
A small tree rarely reaching 10 m, it is used as a source for traditional medicine in the Philippines, and is planted occasionally as an ornamental there and elsewhere.[4]
The island of Siargao in the Philippines is named after P. odorata (known as siargaw or saliargaw in the local languages).[5]
