Explanation:
Geum quellyon - Llallante - Chilean Avens

I gave this answer to another of your questions - Quillón. But it certainly looks like it fits in this case. The common name is Llallante and the scientific name is Geum quellyon. In English, it is known as Chilean Avens.

Hope this helps,


Sheila

This is obviously not a translation of "hierba del clavo," but I think it is the best answer because it is an English name for the plant. Thanks.
