We acquired some meadowsweet powder and put it under a microscope, following the standard procedure of the European Pharmacopeia (using some droplets of a chloralhydrate solution (80 g in 20 mL)), heating followed by cooling, to minimize the crystallization process of chloralhydrate.
Namely a phase contrast microscope.
What we saw was a lot of irrecognisable structures, cells, celldebris, trichoma's (hairs), stoma, ..., but fascinating nonetheless.
