Dear members, Sh. Mahadeswara Swamy <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!profile/indiantreepix/APn2wQebREirXPZyih524_OUbweujh8gmJTX0t4PPz1wer7LSPXS7nhKi5DqQDAOkzIsG4ETlQPF> (older id <https://groups.google.com/forum/#%21activity/indiantreepix/ITG9xnvP8h4J>) is our new Pillar <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/about-us/pillars-of-efloraofindia>, having completed more than 3000 messages. In addition, he has posted numerous messages to me and not directly on the group. I know him, almost since this group was started in 2007. He is almost as good as a founder member. He has always been very gentle and a humble person. He has very good expertise on Ornamental Plants. He is based in Mysore and writes regularly on Ornamental Flora in the newspapers. My hat off to Mahadeswara ji, for his wonderful contributions to the building of efloraofindia. -- With regards, J.M.Garg
