Saluting every life with a flower each day! Flowers are soul of the planet, blooming to play music with silent notes. Smile at them as they are sweet hearted!! Only the photographs taken by me are uplinked. I lean heavily to http://www.flowersofindia for flower identification and descriptions. Looking forward to valuable comments and suggestions.

On a cold rainy chill morning ...
Scientific name: Echeveria elegans
The mexican snow ball or hen and chicks is a succulent, popular as a potted plant. They are drought resistant plants. The beauty of rosettes of unusual blue-green foliage is exemplary and wonderful. The plant blooms once a year. The small red-yellow flowers are carried on a short stem. I took this photograph on 1st December 2010 at Silkworm Satellite Breeding Station, Coonoor while on a workshop on Silkworm Breeding.
