I am putting up the Blooming Friday post now, one day earlier, as I am leaving on a trip to some historical places for the long weekend . The flower above and below are the flowers of the Rasna, Alpinia galangal, a medicinal herb used extensively in Ayurvedic formulas. The plant puts out its orchid- like flowers during spring.
The flower shown below is bright red . I don't know its name. My camera doesn't do justice to the beauty of the flower.
There is another flower here whose name I don't know, although I have had it since 8 years. My school gardener tells me that it is a yellow Barleria, but I doubt it.
This is the red Chenille Plant from my School garden.
Red and yellow are the colours of Holi, the colourful Spring festival of India.A happy Holi to all my Indian friends!
