Good suggestions here already, but perhaps I could add:\n\nHerbs:  passionflower, hops, camomile, baical skullcap, oatstraw, motherwort.  This last plant is known for its nurturing effect, although in Florida might be hard to find.  Its Latin name is leonurus cardiaca, so its slight beneficial effect on blood pressure and on heart palpitations has been known since ancient times.\n\nI'll add valerian with a special note:  it's generally used for insomnia or anxiety, but it has a counter-effect with a small minority of people - it speeds them up instead of calming them.  So if you try valerian I'd try it alone, not in any combination, so you can determine whether you belong to the majority or the minority group.\n\nTo nourish the adrenal glands, which in turn will permit one to tolerate stress better:  oatstraw and nettles.  Nettles as in stinging nettles.  One of the most beneficial herbs in the plant kingdom.  Contrary to its common name, plant has a slightly sweet flavour.  Chock full of vitamins & minerals, more than spinach or broccoli.\n\nOne can usually find combinations of these herbs in tea preparations or in tincture form.  If you get to Washington state you can probably find wild nettles growing in the countryside, or someone who knows how to find & harvest them.  Make nettle soup, as north Europeans did for centuries in the spring - it perked them up after long winters without fresh veggies.\n\nFlower essences:  in addition to Rescue Remedy, there's also mustard flower essence (for grief) and bleeding heart flower essence (mourning something that's lost).\n\nWould you have time to try yoga?  Or even just to read Yoga Journal in a library, it's inspiring to read about people practising yoga to grow their minds and spirits as well as their bodies.

umbrella tree-\n\nThe African Corkwood Tree (Musanga cecropioides), also known as the Umbrella tree, is found in Africa from Sierra Leone to Angola and eastward to Uganda. It is typical in secondary forests..\n\nThis tree is also known as Parasolier, N'Govoge, Doe, Umbrella Tree, kombo-kombo, musanga, musanda and Govwi.\n\nif you are looking for umbrella plant the links are:-\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umbrella_Plant\n\nanother piece of info is;-\n\nNative to Australia, New Guinea and Java, the Umbrella Tree, Schefflera actinophylla, is very common in South Florida and the warmer parts of Central Florida.  Schefflera is also seen indoors as a houseplant all over the world\n\nRated up to 40 feet, Umbrella Tree has large shiny medium green leaves held in groups of seven compound leaves.  Observers in New Guinea report seeing Schefflera growing epiphytic starting as much as 40 feet up in tall rainforest trees\n\nMature trees outdoors in full sun develop very showy flowers in the summer.   The Schefflera in the pic above is in the final red stage of bloom\n\nUnfortunately, this Schefflera is also on Florida's "Don't Plant" list of nuisance trees.  What many people don't realize is outdoors, Schefflera is a nuisance for three reasons:\n\nSchefflera seeds itself very easily causing Schefflera to grow where no one wants a large tree \nRoots are strong, aggressive and can take over much of the surrounding soil \nSchefflera sheds leaves constantly creating a littered appearance below \nIf you plant Schefflera, most any well drained soil will do.  After establishment, occasional water and occasional food are all that is required\n\nThere are numerous varieties of Dwarf Schefflera most often called Arborcola.  Called Miniature Umbrella Plant, Schefflera arborcola is native to Taiwan.  Arborcola can have all green leaves or variegated either green-yellow or green-white, depending on variety and sun or shade locations\n\nArborcola are Schefflera shrubs generally used in mass to fill bed space and provide contrast in colors and foliage.  This pic shows Arborcola used that way behind impatiens.   Arborcola is a slow growing plant, so it is easy to keep within bounds.   Pruned to create more branching, Arborcola is very nice with none of the negatives of its larger cousin\n\nSchefflera farinosa (variegated) is native to Malaya and Indonesia, has green-yellow leaves like Arborcola, but much larger in size.  Farinosa is an excellent plant far less seen but perhaps even more attractive than Arborcola\n\nSchefflera digitata is native to New Zealand, a shrub with a much thinner habit in green leaves that have points rather than rounded\n\nUmbrella tree indoors as a houseplant is easy to grow if kept warm, in good light and the soil fairly dry.  Just follow basic houseplant procedures to have a nice Schefflera indoors all year round

I have not seen any such plant. Can you tell me where it lives? Does it go by any other common names? What kind of plant is it--tree, bush, weed, vine, etc. ? I think you can edit your question to give more imformation. It it in the U.S., Africa, etc.?

Schisandra (Magnolia Vine) is a genus of shrub commonly grown in gardens. It is a hardy deciduous climber which thrives in virtually any soil; its preferred position is on a sheltered shady wall. It may be propagated by taking cuttings of half-matured shoots in August.\n\nSpecies include S. chinensis, S. glaucescens, and S. rubrifolia.\n\nIt is native to East Asia and its dried fruit is used medicinally. The berries of Schisandra chinensis are given the name wuweizi (???) in Chinese, which translates as "five flavor fruit," due to the fact that they possess all five basic flavors: salty, sweet, sour, pungent (spicy), and bitter. In traditional Chinese medicine it is used as a remedy for many ailments: to resist infections, increase skin health, and combat insomnia, coughing, and thirst.\n\n-From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schizandra\n---------------------\n\nSchizandra (Fruit)\n\nThe applicable part of schisandra is the fruit and is often referred to as an adaptogen. It improves liver function, increases concentration, coordination, respiratory function, and endurance. It is also has anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-tussive, anti-convulsant, anti-depressant, anti-fatigue, tranquilizing, and a decrease in bleeding properties.\n\nSchisandra is often used to reduce fatigue, improve work performance, and build strength. Some people claim that it improves libido in women and staying power in men. \n\n-From http://lifenutrientsusa.com/glossary482.html

That is Murraya paniculata, commonly known as orange jasmine or mock orange in the US and as rain bush in Australia. It is a native of Australia and South East Asia and a serious environmental weed in Hawaii.\n\nThe plant comes in a variety of forms, with the Australian form having smaller, rounder olive green leaves and more leaflets to each leaf. The one in your photo looks like the Malayan form, with large glossy green leaves and relatively few leaflets. There are also cultivated dwarf forms that only grow to a a metre or so in height that make reasonable indoor plants\n\nThey are available at most nurseries and grow  well in most of the southern US. \n\nEdit>>>>\n\nMaverick that is most definitely NOT any type of Gardenia. Gardenias are characterised by TERMINAL infloresences and an INFERIOR gynoecium. You can  see quite plainly from the photographs that this plant has AXILLIARY inflorescences and the gynoecium is SUPERIOR.\n\nMoreover, as you yourself point out, G. jasminoides has SIMPLE leaves. This plant quite clearly has COMPOUND leaves. To the untrained eye this may not be obvious, but look at the first photo provided and look at the flower at the top right. If you look at the leaf that is partially obscuring that flower you can quite clearly see the individual leaflets. \n\nAdded to that G jasminoides has >11 perianth parts. These flowers have 5-10. Have a look at some Gogle images of G. jasminoides. The flowers all have >6 petals and have a superficial similarity to roses. These flowers have only 5 petals.\n\nThis plant quite clearly belongs to the Rutacea. It can not therefore be a Gardenia.\n\nI'm not sure if you are claimiong to be a botanist yourself or that your information comes form a botanist, but I would fail my botany students for identifying that plant as a member of the Rubiacea.

The name Ambrosia was also applied by Dioscorides and Pliny to certain herbs, and has been retained in modern botany for a genus of plants from which it has been extended to the group of dicotyledons called Ambrosiaceae, including Ambrosia, Xanthium and Iva, all annual herbaceous plants represented in America. Ambrosia maritima and some other species occur also in the Mediterranean region.\n\n\nGenus, Latin Ambrosia \nSpecies, Latin maritima \nFamily COMPOSITAE (ASTERACEAE) \nCommon name, English Sea ambrosia; Oak of Cappadocia \nCommon name, German Strandambrosie . \nChorortype Mediterranean \nLife form Raunkiaer  chamaephyte, semi-shrub \nSummer shedding perenating \nSucculence non-succulent \nSalt resistance glycophyte \nHabitat or affinity to vegetation formation Mediterranean strand vegetation \nSynanthropy mostly natural, also synanthropic \n\n\nThis taxon is included in Ambrosia artemisiifolia L. by some authorities. It has been found to contain the potentially allergenic sesquiterpene lactones ambrosin and damsin (Yoshioka et al. 1973).\n\nAmbrosia artemisiifolia L. \n(syn. Ambrosia elatior L.) \nShort Ragweed, Common Ragweed, Low Ragweed\nThis species is found almost throughout the United States, extending in distribution from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast, throughout southern Canada, and as far south as southern Florida, northern California, and Cuba. Short ragweed is a complex and variable species consisting of a number of genotypes which, under natural environmental conditions, tend to segregate out (Wodehouse 1971).\n\nIn various reports, 14 of 18 (Brunsting & Anderson 1934), 37 of 40 (Brunsting & Williams 1936), 23 of 50 (Shelmire 1939a), and 23 of 25 patients (Mackoff & Dahl 1951) who had "weed dermatitis" showed positive patch test reactions to this species. Krook (1977) observed positive patch test reactions to this species in 2 of 4 patients with occupational contact dermatitis to lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.). Burry & Kloot (1982) believe that Australian bush dermatitis is caused by airborne dusts from members of the Compositae, formed by the breakdown of senescent tissues in the hot, dry conditions of the bush, and that ragweed (A. artemisiifolia) is one of the specific elicitors of this condition. These authors also give distribution maps for Ambrosia species in Australia.\n\nMitchell et al. (1971a) investigated contact sensitivity to the short ragweed and the false ragweed. Patients were found to be sensitive to a number of sesquiterpene lactones (desacetylconfertiflorin, psilostachyin, psilostachyin B, psilostachyin C, ambrosiol, damsin, tamaulipin A, tamaulipin B, isabelin, & reynosin) as well as to burweed marshelder and feverfew (unidentified species if Iva L. and Chrysanthemum L. respectively) and liverworts belonging to the genus Frullania Raddi (fam. Jubulaceae).\n\nTan & Mitchell (1968) and Thune & Solberg (1980) observed positive patch test reactions to the oleoresin from this species and other members of the Compositae in two photosensitive and lichen allergic patients. Positive patch test reactions to the oleoresin of the species were observed by Frain-Bell & Johnson (1979) in 10 from 55 patients with the photosensitivity dermatitis and actinic reticuloid syndrome.\n\nSeveral sesquiterpene lactones, including ambrosin, coronopilin, damsin, isabelin, and psilostachyin have been reported from this species (Yoshioka et al. 1973). Inayama et al. (1974) reported the isolation of ambrosic acid, a sesquiterpenoid compound without a γ-lactone ring, from the pollen and other parts of this species. They described this compound as "irritant" but did not state how this activity was discovered.

Echinacea is a good choice.  Also, try ginger (it's antibacterial & antiviral, with other properties), onions and garlic (antibacterial and antiviral), an assortment of vitamins and minerals (especially vitamin c (particularly if you were already deficient in it)), cayenne pepper (a host of benefits), horseradish (host of benefits), plus many other herbs and spices.
