Boehmeria virgata subsp. macrophylla is a subspecies of Boehmeria virgata, a flowering plant in the nettle family Urticaceae. This herbaceous plant perennial is native to tropical Africa and the western Indian Ocean.[1] Some sources say that it is also native to China.[2]

The flowers are dioecious or monoecious. Its flowering season is from June to September. It is commonly found in forests, thickets, along streams and roadsides. It is characterized by the opposite leaves, spike-like inflorescences, and fruiting perianths with a rounded base.[2]

Uses

The fibre of the stem is shiny, white and strong, and is used for making sacks, bags, rough clothes, nets, and rope. It is possibly useful for textiles. The woody parts are moderately hard but too small for woodworking; however they make a good fuel.[3]
Boehmeria virgata subsp. macrophylla has some applications in traditional medicine, including as a tonic, for treating boils and for dermatitis. It is also used as an insecticide.[4]
