Lazy Sunday !!

Only these two plants which uncle brought from Assam survived  the hot weather of Delhi !! Wish the monsoon had come a little earlier … then the others esp. the Begonia would have survived too!

THE RIGHT ONE : This is a species of  “Taro” (more scientificly  Colocasia  esculenta). The  leaves of this particular plant doesn’t grow more than 1/2 inch.  My uncle was telling me that it’s quite a rare plant n maybe that’s why i haven’t seen this plant at anybodys before.  This taro species doesn’t survive easily … they are pretty fragil – but i guess they like Delhi’s weather.

There was a time when i didn’t like non-flowering plant – but now i love them too 🙂 …… different shape n size – their colors – creaper or herbs – no matter whether it’s floral or non-floral – i simply love them all !!

Few day’s back i bought a “beel phool” plant (white flowering plant with amazing sweet smell) for Piyal’s mom as she wanted to plant a plant … any plant. Piyal one day asked me – if they can rent a plant from my place.  So i gifted the plant to them … they were happy to have it.

THE LEFT ONE : Little red flowers bunch will blossom on this plant. They’re of many types … with white, yellow, and even pink flower. When i told this to my uncle – he asked to buy that plant with any of those color for him.

Today we’re going to Santwana’s house for lunch … they live in Mahavir Enclave. There is a nursery near their place – have planned to visit the nursery. Let’s see if i find something interesting to bring back home 🙂

Enjoy the lazy Sunday !!

  1. Hi Sharmila,

    Thank you for stopping by my blog.Those tiny caladiums love shady areas. They’ll die out in the winter but new leaves will sprout in March/April. The other plant is known as Kalanchoe. They come in many colours but I must say that red ones look spectacular!

    I read your “About” page and wow, how interesting! Lucky to have seen and lived in all those places!

    Have a great week! And happy gardening!
