Hi, herbendize
Horny Goat Weed (also known as Puncture Weed and Caltrop) is Tribulus terrestris. It grows wild in NSW and Qld where it is a noxious weed because of its spiny fruits.

The herb known as Horny Goat Weed is Epimedium Sagittum, though the herb mentioned by Rose-Marie has a similar purpose.

HGW causes vasoconstriction of the pelvic blood vessels and is very useful when used with tribulus and yohimbe for imputence. Cant say I've ever seen the plant or seed for sale??? Has anyone else?
