This manuscript covers a detailed pharmacognostic evaluation of Crassula ovata. Whole plant Crassula ovata, including morphology, microscopy, physicochemical, and phytochemical screening. Microscopy of different plant part was done by performing transverse sections, which were identified by the different staining reagents and dyes. The whole plant's physicochemical constants, which consist of moisture content, extractive value, and ash value, were determined. Phytochemicals screening was done for methanol, ethanol, chloroform, acetone and water extract of Crassula ovata. Phytochemical analysis from the extracts was performed using the standard methods. Phytochemical analysis of the extract indicated the present of Saponin, phenol, phytosterol, steroid, terpenoid, flavonoid, carbohydrates and proteins. The Pharmacognostic evaluation generated data of Crassula ovata may be used as tools for quality control of drugs in the future, for healing of diversity of disease conditions.
