Baliospermum solanifolium is a stout under-shrub 0.9-1.8 m in height with herbaceous branches from the roots.

Leaves are simple, sinuate-toothed, upper ones small, lower ones large and sometimes palmately 3-5 lobed.

[2][better source needed] Baliospermum solanifolium is distributed from China to tropical Asia.

[citation needed] Compounds isolated from this plant include steroids, triterpenoids, diterpenes, glycosides, saponins, alkaloids, and polyphenols.

[3] The stems and leaves had the highest total phenolic content, which can be attributed to the existence of tannins in this plant.
