Tṛṇapañcamūla (तृणपञ्चमूल) is the Sanskrit name for a group of five plants (medicinal grasses). It was originally composed by Suśruta in his Suśrutasaṃhitā sūtrasthāna XXXVIII, a classic work on Āyurveda. The name is derived from the words kaṇṭaka (‘thorn’ or ‘needle’) and pañcamūla, translating to “five roots”.

The five plants are

  1. Kuśa, 
  2. Kāśa,
  3. Nala,
  4. Darbha.
  5. Kāṇdekṣuka (Śāra).

The collection of herbs named Tṛṇapañcamūla is but one of the thirty-seven gaṇas (‘sections’) of such groups.
