Drymaria cordata, the tropical chickweed, stangries, West Indian chickweed, or golondrina, is a species of flowering plant in the family Caryophyllaceae.[2] It is native to moist habitats in Latin America and sub-Saharan Africa, and has been introduced to many places in the tropics and subtropics, including the southeast US, the Caribbean, the Indian Subcontinent, southern China, Japan, and a number of islands.[1] It is known as one of the most aggressive weeds of the tropical and subtropical parts of the world.[3]
