Thanks for the appreciation. I am so happy to know it is one of your favourite flowers and am glad I uploaded them today! The fragrance is unbeatable even by Kamini's and sonchampa's which I find very fragrant. You seem to be good at growing these at different places. Maybe Tabish ji should take your help in growing them in Delhi ! Tabish ji I hope you can have these soon in Delhi !
Thank you Dinesh ji for the prompt ID which I could see only on the main site and also to Pankaj ji for the the info. from Chattisgarh. What a fragrant place it will be once the farmers have planted so many of these flowers. The wiki site has very interesting info. about this flower: it is Cuba's national flower and Floridata says it is native of India and popular landscape plant throughout Florida, the Gulf, tropical and sub-tropical areas world wide. regards, Rashida. > From: [email protected] > Date: Mon, 19 Oct 2009 13:43:33 +0530 > Subject: [indiantreepix:21125] Re: Most fragrant flower- Request ID please > 190909 > To: [email protected] > CC: [email protected] > > > So nice to see an old favourite,Rashida.Thanks!!
