So exciting, Aleya!

The Latin Justicia pectoralis makes so much sense. Any idea where the common name came from?

I think it may come from the word carpenter being equated with its utility and more specifically Yeshua was a carpenter, so it speaks to the healing properties and its importance culturally.
