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.

Wishful Sunday ...
Scientific name: Zephyranthes candida
The fairy lily, Zephyr lily or rain lily is a bulbous plant, bearing linear hollow, strap shaped or grass like leaves. The solitary flowers have 6 pointed petals with equal number of bright and beautiful stamens. It flourishes throughout the rainy season, especially after heavy showers. It is suitable for planting in pots or in beds. If it is planted on grass edges, it gives a beautiful look while on full bloom. It took this photograph in my native place from a very famous plant nursery while visiting with my sister and brother-in-law, on 12th October, 2011.
