    Hi all,

    Thought I'd start a thread to share the flowers growing in my garden. Let me start with Holy Basil (we call it tulsi) flower. They're really tiny. Here's how they look.

    Macro shot of the flower.

        Bulbophyllum neilgherrense : an orchid collected from the western ghats of India. :) I've tied it to a tree with a little coco peat. Voila. Bloomed within two months of it being in my garden. :)

          hallo Karthik,
          judging by your flowers, I would say you are not in the UK.
          Where are you please?
          Jenny

          Hi Jenny,

          I am sorry if the profile of mine isn't showing the location. I'll log in from my laptop and update it.

          I am from Bangalore, India. :)

          Cheers,

          Karthik

            Thanks Lynda and "M". I'll upload more macro shots in the coming weeks.

            Cheers,
