A sun rise...!


Scientific name: Anacyclus pyrethrum
A beautiful garden flower found in North Africa, North India and Himalayas. Has got many medicinal values. Used in the treatment of toothache and the roots are used in the treatment of paralysis and epilepsy. I have seen this flower flourishing in many gardens and this particular photograph was taken in Coonoor on 3rd Dec. 2010 as it was smiling at me on a flower bed.
