Parushaka (Grewia asiatica L.): Ayurveda’s Cooling and Restorative Phalsa Berry

The accepted botanical name is Grewia asiatica L. The spelling “Grewia asiatical” sometimes seen in secondary documents is incorrect. Modern taxonomy places the plant in the Malvaceae family, although older botanical and Ayurvedic publications often classify it under Tiliaceae. Kew recognises Grewia asiatica as an accepted species native across a broad region extending from southern Iran through the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia to Queensland.
