Were screened for their phytochemical constituents following hot continuous and successive extraction by soxhlet apparatus. Qualitative phytochemical screening was under taken to check for the presence of alkaloids, flavanoids, saponins tannins, phenols cardiac glycosides, di and tri terpenoids in various extracts such as petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, chloroform, methanol and water. Among all the five extracts, maximum phytochemicals were found dissolved in methanol followed by water, chloroform, ethyl acetate and then petroleum ether.
