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.
The scarlet clock vine is unusual in shape. The red flower stalk hang down from its vine. Native to India, Burma and Malaya. In cooler climate the flower is more reddish. A wonderful climber suitable for fences and arches. This beautiful flower stalk was touching my shoulders while moving along an arch, to call my attention. I took this snap in the afternoon of Dec. 3, 2010 in Coonoor.
