The following quality indexes were determined in batches from "Dr. Juan Tomás Roig" Experimental Station of Medicinal Plants: humidity, total ashes, soluble substances and essential oils. Micro- and macro morphological descriptions of the species were made, the conditions for the optimum drying were established, a chromatographic profile was standardized for flavonoid compounds and another for essential oils by thin layer chromatography. Besides, the storage time was determined in different containers in a conservation experiment during a year and it was found that the drug maintained their organoleptic characteristics for 10 months.
