Iresine is a genus of flowering plants in the family Amaranthaceae. [2] [1] It contains 20 to 25 species, all of which are native to the American tropics. The generic name is derived from the Greek word εριος (erios), meaning " wooly", referring to the trichome-covered flowers. [3] Bloodleaf [4] is a common name for those species that have colored foliage, and these are often cultivated as ornamental plants. Some species are additives to versions of the hallucinogenic drink ayahuasca.
