Interesting discussion.
But the flowers must be having nektar. Because I remember my mother
singing: अडूलश्याची फुले देठांत थेंब गोड. can't remember how it goes further.
Madhuri (pejaver) ji, help is needed!!

Leaves are attractive because they are always that nice deep green...
like a faithful husband/wife who is always cheerful...
seriously though... a great medicine for cough, colds and bronchial
asthma...
the british east India co physicians learnt it from local Kavirajs in
Bengal and Made up the patent medicine Glycodin Terp-Vasaka and made
millions of POUNDS sterling from the Indian Market....
Its available I believe even now...
but many of the other bronchial dilators and decongestants in the
market still use Adhatoda extracts as a base with additions of
Antihistaminics added for a double dose whammy... like a hammer to
open a peanut...
