Also known as Trinitaria, in: Cuba, Panama, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic and Venezuela.
Papelillo in some northern areas of Peru.
It is highly sought after as a medicinal treatment for the skin since its antiseptic properties help prevent acne and flaking.
Its petals are fragile and look like paper sheets, very light in the wind.
