Thank you Jerry for your feed back. I do appreciate.
There is a flower see new link below (not a slide show) locally named as 'alfinet'. For that matter, there is also one called 'butanv' (button), St.Anton (st. Anthony) These are all local names and may differ from village to village or taluka to taluka.

In your present article, Goan Flowers you have mentioned �alfinet� which I believe is a safety pin, and not a flower. Some flowers that I can recollect are Rozam, Shinvtim, Zueo, Lilly, forgot the name of the shoe flower, the most famous one, than gantarim those small wild flowers? (most abv flowers blooms during monsoon, pics will be added soon, Joe) Cheers Jerry Fernandes Riyadh/Aldona [EMAIL PROTECTED] for NRI related info... http://in.groups.yahoo.com/group/GOAN-NRI/ For info on Konkani VCDs (Films, Tiatr, Comedies and films on GOA...) http://konkani-vcd.swiki.net/1 ___________________________________________________________ How much free photo storage do you get?
