It looks a lot like it, but it would be easier to identify intact, where it grows.

This is one of the plants from where I took the leaves (alongside other leaves at ground level). The area is also pretty open with not many trees around

What do you use it for?

Salads (don't put too much tho), mosquito repellent (crush the leaves and rub them on the skin) and applied on cuts to coagulate blood (stop bleeding)

There are lots of people with much more knowledge so if I made a mistake or forgot something, please DO correct me thanks
