Phyllanthus urinaria is an annual height of 10-40cm tall
found in fields or roadsides with red stems. As leaves alternate
regularly on branches (ramus traverses), they look like pinnate
compound leaves. The leaves measure 0.6-1.5cm long and are oblong to
obovate. Flowers are tiny; male flowers set themselves on axils on
upper portions and females on lower axils, with six perianths on
either sex. Female spherical ovaries have protruded wrinkles on the
surfaces that remain on brown capsules. Bloom time: July-October. |
