Frog fruit is a low, creeping perennial herb of the verbena family found throughout the tropics, including damp ground and riverbanks across India. It roots at the joints, forming mats of small toothed leaves and button-like heads of tiny white to pink flowers.

Known as Jalapippali in Sanskrit, it is used in Ayurvedic and folk practice in traditional preparations that support digestion, and in cooling applications for skin care. The whole plant is the part used.
