portions. First portion was extracted with water by means of maceration technique using chloroform as preservative (0.3%). The second portion was extracted using 95% ethanol in a soxhlet extractor. The last traces of solvents were removed under vacuum drier and the solid residue was stored in a refrigerator until further use. The percentage yield of leaf ethanolic and aqueous extracts were 22.80 % w/w and 24.54 % w/w respectively and the percentage yield of flower ethanolic and aqueous extracts were 23.50 % w/w and 28.99 % w/w respectively.
