The weed Tridax procumbens Linn. (Compositae) is found throughout India. The plant originated in tropical America and has since migrated to Australia, Asia, and tropical Africa. It is referred to by the locals as "Ghamara," or "coat buttons" in English. It is prescribed by some Ayurvedic doctors as "Bhringraj." Tridax procumbens is a common medicinal herb used by ethnomedical practitioners. Numerous pharmacological properties, including hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory, wound-healing, antidiabetic, hypotensive, immunomodulatory, bronchial catarrh, dysentery, and diarrhoea, have been associated with it. The distinctive characteristics of the leaves and stem of the plant Tridax Procumbens were established by the macroscopic, microscopic, and powder study. The presence or lack of many phytochemicals, including alkaloids, flavonoids, cardiac glycosides, tannins, saponins, triterpenes, etc., was assessed in the crude powder of the leaves and stem of both plants. Ash values (total ash, water soluble ash, acid insoluble ash, and sulphated ash) were the parameters assessed in the physicochemical analysis. Palisade tissue, parenchymatous tissue, xylem, phloem, pointed multicellular trichomes, and anomocytic stomata were all seen in the microscopic investigations.
