PARPADAGA PUL

Parpadaga Pul (Mollugo cerviana), also called Carpetweed or Threadstem Carpetweed, is a small, delicate herb that grows abundantly in dry, open lands across India. With its fine thread-like stems and small leaves, it has been recognized in Tamil Siddha medicine for centuries. The plant has also found mention in traditional Ayurvedic literature as part of India’s long-standing herbal knowledge. In rural communities, Parpadaga Pul carries a legacy of being closely tied to everyday natural remedies and local healing traditions, making it a valued part of the region’s ethnobotanical heritage.
