A more than rich episode indeed. Far bigger than expected, Prashant ji's plants really are spread from large number of geopgraphical places. It is heartening to see that the number of active participants seems to have gone up.We enjoyed the Geraniums from Gurcharan ji. Crisp shots from Dinesh ji. Important points about characters from Santhosh ji and Dr. Wojciech Vijaysankar ji. Huge collection of garden varieties from Aarti ji.; VOF collection from Nidhan ji. and uploads from all other members. Balkar ji seems to be busy so we couldn't find him much in spite of his large collection. One thing which struck to me is Ritesh ji's huge collection from supposedly unexplored NE regions. Of course we missed the quality of pictures which he shows us presently(May be most of his collection is with his earlier camera) and some of his posts remain to be mystery. Dr Satish Phadke
