Floral Bracts

This is a close-up of the bracts of the Euphorbia milii. It is also called as 'Crown of Thorns' or 'Christ Plant' as Jesus Christ was made to wear a thorny crown made from the stem of this plant during His Crucification. The stem of this plant has ghastly looking thorns which you cannnot see in this picture.

Yes. I'm Bored.

A Floral Collection.

I am a plant lover with photography as an enjoyable hobby. The flawless symmetry, vibrant colours and seemingly endless varities and peculiarities of flowers have always fascinated me. So my first tribute to this photography section would be of some pictures i have clicked over the years. Do leave comments and advice.

My favourite flower. The 'Passion Flower'. Also locally called 'Krishna Kamal' or 'Rakheechur' (as it resembles a rakhee.)


The Yellow Allamanda with a bit of artificial border thrown in.


Assorted flowers picked out from a bouquet.


The Big red Hisbiscus.


A yellow Hibiscus - But not the usual 5 petal variety. It's called a 'Chinese Hibiscus' if i'm not mistaken.


Yellow Hibiscus, with beautiful red core.


A rose caught in the stages of blooming.


One of the reddest roses i've seen.


A big jucy 'Desi Gulab'. Flaunting shades of yellow, light pink and dark pink. Excellent Fragrance of this one.


The flower of the Adenium Obesum.


I don't know what these flowers were called. but they flower just once in their lifetime, and then the whole plant dies. If any of you know the name of this plant, do let me know.
