Dear Gurcharan ji, Thanks for those encouraging words. Around three years ago,I didn't know a single name of flora.By chance I found flowersofindia site.My son who was here on a vacation, encouraged me to send my pictures.Initially I was very reluctant...but my son kept on reminding me.Out of five pictures that I sent,four were added on the site.Tabish ji encouraged me a lot initially...how to resize pictures,etc. Thus slowly, this journey began. Now in my spare time, I always have something to do...never get bored and also get to learn so much. Aarti
