Last morning a beautiful bouquet welcome me when I woke up early in the morning. It really made my day and was thinking how beautiful the flowers are. It is true that "when words escape, flowers speak."
The bouquet was full of colorful lovely flowers like - rose, jasmine, marigold, bougainvillea and some lovely orchids. The bouquet was made by my daughter with the flowers of my garden. It was a priceless gift to me.
At the same time I was thanking to nature to be so bountiful. The beautiful flowers tell us so many things. We can convey passion, love, respect, congrats, apology through flowers. These are the perfect gift for any occasion. Flowers also differ from country to country.
In India the most popular flowers are - rose, marigold, night queen, jasmine, lotus, bougainvillea, hibiscus and many more. Here every day people worship a deity with flowers. It has been considered that flowers are the best way to offer payers to our God. Indians uses flowers, plants, herbs like neem, Tulsi in many daily activities. I still remember long back when I cut my finger while playing, my grand mother collected some leaves of marigold, rub them with her finger and put the juice on my cut to stop the blood coming out. Amazingly it worked. There are so many flowers and plants in India which have great medicinal value. There are different flowers tour or eco flora tour for the nature lovers available in India which take people to the world of flowers.
Yes! Just a beautiful bouquet took me to a world of thought and made me write a brief about the flora of India.
