Abstract: 
Leucas aspera, Traditionally, the plant was used as an insecticide and an antipyretic. Leucas leaves are used for the relief of rheumatism.  Leucas aspera is an abruptly quadrangular, growing annual herb with a strong, hispid stem and branches. Every portion of the plant, includes the stem, leaves, roots, and flowers, shows pharmacological properties. Green nanoparticles are nanoparticles that can be developed using sustainable techniques. By extracting the material and taking it through several stages of synthesizing, a usable product was generated.
