This member of the Verbenaceae family was given this name by Joseph Gaertner in 1788. It is found in Coastal India and Sri Lanka (and a better part of coastal Asia), growing in a well drained but rich soil with lots of water and some to lots of sun. The stem can grow to nine centimetres in diameter, the entire plant to three or even thirteen centimetres in height. The flowers are white.
The genera name is derived from two Greek words, kleros, meaning 'chance', 'fate' or "clergy", and dendron, 'a tree'.
The species name meaning 'unarmed' as it have no spines. A young plant from Plantscapedubai.com.
