This little member of the mint family is native to Eastern Australia and parts of Asia, including Hawaii. I understand that it grows as a weed in parts of USA. It is a pretty little plant with small bright blue flowers in early summer. I grew some from seed and it has propagated itself readily under the shade of a Buddleia tree.
