No other experiment! Itwas between 7.30 am and 12.30 pm. Last week too other friends have reported during morning time that there was no smell what so ever. We even tried to find out if there was some smell in the leaves but no just ordinary leaf smell ! Since it is blooming all over in Mumbai forests and some other places it will be very easy to verify this and whether there is any particular peculiar behaviour of this plant! regards, Rashida. > Date: Sun, 6 Dec 2009 23:29:35 -0800 > Subject: [indiantreepix:24700] Re: Eranthemum roseum > From: [email protected] > To: [email protected] > > Can you please tell in brief how you performed this experiment of > smelling Eranthemum?
