NOW, Dear USHA PRABHA JI: I have always admired the blue berries of Elaeocarpus sphaericus because of its sometimes shiny, sometimes iridescent blue coat ( esp in digital photos) is very peaceful and delightful.
and Rudraksha beads are such an important part of our collective religious heritage...I have wondered about the flowers.. Never seen them... let alone photograph them.... Thank you for showing these... Once at a herbal garden local gardeners showed us some plant with white flowers and said it was Rudraksha tree, but later when the botanists came.. it turned out to be a sea-coast salt resistant something... I do not recall the name... that was almost 15 years ago... I can still see the flowers and leaves clearly in my head but cant remember the name... Thanks again.
