Ever smiling ...

Scientific name: Thunbergia laurifolia
The beautiful Laurel clock vine or Blue trumpet vine is native to India. Flowers are borne on pendulous inflorescences. It flowers throughout the year and is a popular ornamental plant. It opens in the morning and gets aborted in the same evening. The creeper has fascinated me since so long, because whenever I visited any popular park or garden, it was there to smile at me. This flower was shot in the afternoon of 3rd Dec. 2010 at Coonoor.
