Research Abstract
Punica granatum L. var. nana (ornamental pomegranate) belongs to family Punicaceae. It is popularly planted in gardens for ornament. The root, stem bark and to a lesser extent fruit rind of the edible pomegranate had been commonly used as a vermifugal or taenicidal agent on tapeworms. By reviewing the literature, no botanical studies were done on Punica grantum L. var. nana, so this study aims for characterization and identification of this plant in both entire and powdered forms.
