Purple petunia or Petunia violacea in Latin is an annual plant belonging to the Solanaceae family.
Its flowering is purple purple during the summer period.
Its seeds are small and black, the size of those of apple of peru or chilean giant rhubarb.

They were consumed like Mapacho tobacco by the Indians and were used in magical preparations during ethnic rituals.
In the mountainous region of Ecuador, it has been used as a fantasy plant just like the Peruvian torch or the pincushion cactus.
