The garden heliotrope ("
Heliotropium
arborescens") is a highly fragrant perennial plant, originally from Peru. It is especially notable for its intense, rather vanilla-like fragrance. Common names include "cherry pie" and "common heliotrope". Note that the common name "garden heliotrope" may also refer to Valerian (herb), which is not a
heliotropium
variety.
In 1820, "The Botanical Register" reported that "Marsdenia suaveolens" flowered in the United Kingdom in Colville Nursery in Chelsea. The flower's fragrance was greatly praised and compared to that of "
Heliotropium
peruvianum" (now "
Heliotropium
arborescens"). It can be grown in well-drained soil in a spot with some shelter in the garden.
A comparison of areas affected by FTS and unaffected areas suggests three plant species may be the cause: "
Heliotropium
", specifically "
Heliotropium
ovalifolium", "Indigofera", and "Boerhavia". Native to Nigeria, "
Heliotropium
ovalifolium" is known to be poisonous and has been cited to cause diarrhea and bleeding in humans. It is theorized that elephants are being forced to consume toxic vegetation due to changes in weather patterns and to the natural ecology of their habitats. Several cases were observed when drought conditions enabled elephants to access grasslands adjacent to Fothergill Island.
