Wild senna is indigenous to Suriname and it is found in secondary vegetation or along riverbanks or moist and even wet spots.
It is also a host plant to many species of sulphur caterpillars, included the orange barred sulphure.
Guajava is a fast grower and will flower in the first year.
The leaves have laxative properties and can be effective as such.
Ringworm cassia also has antimicrobial - and antifungus activity and can be used against dermatophyte infections such as tidea pedis (athlete's foot).

Elva, thanks for the info on the cassia plant. I started one from seed this spring, it's about 3' tall now in a pot. I guess I'll have to find room for it in the house it didn't bloom for me this year. I thought it would grow faster than it did, but we had a cool wet summer, maybe it will do better for me next year. But I love the leaves on this plant it is so unique. You guys getting seeds are going to love the look of this plant, and the blooms in the picture are just beautiful. Thanks, Cathy
