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 deciduous low to medium ever green shrub is native to Korea and Japan. Leaves are ovate to lance shaped. Funnel shaped flowers are borne in trusses of 2 to 4 blooms and are in shades of lilac, rose, white, etc., with purple spots and fragrance. Can be grown as borders, hedges and fences. I saw this plant in Coonoor and in Ooty in many home gardens. This photograph was taken on 3rd December, 2010 at Coonoor by way side in front of a house, where it was maintained as a hedge cum fence.
