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.
East Indian Glory Bower is a shrub or small tree. The species is found in tropical and subtropical regions of Asia. It reaches upto 3 m high and is ever green. Young branches are 4 angled, leaves simple and opposite. Flowers are white and borne in 4-6 branched corymbose cymes at the end of branches. Inflorescence loosely cymose or capitate. The fruits are beautiful blue-green, becoming black when dry. Though it is found in North East India, this particular flowerwas shot at Mysore, just opposite to CSRTI, Mysore, for which i am thankful to my colleague, who took me to this shrub in the afternoon of 29th August 2011.
