This is called Parijat or Prajakta in Marathi, one of my favorite flowers.

This is at NTR Grounds Hyderabad during Shivratri, 15 days before Shivratri every day some programmes are held.

In Bengali, it is called Shiuli or Shefali. It looks so beautiful and I love this flower. Actually, I am emotionally attached to it because my mother's name was Shefali. The colour combination is beautiful and smells superb. The orange stem of this flower can be used for colouring the clothes orange. Interestingly, this flower is usually not plucked from the tree but picked up from the ground below the tree because it falls off the tree on the ground.  

My rented house in Canberra spread over 1200 sq meters. I will post its backyard images soon..

I took this picture last December in Switzerland while we stopped for a while to take in the breathtaking scenery , while driving on to Jura Mountains..

Another flower from our house. Walking Iris blooms only for a day and then withers.

Wow , what a beautiful and unusual looking flower ? Is it a wild flower ? Some of the wild flowers are very very attractive..

Amazing! Switzerland is simply breathtaking. You are so lucky that your daughter lives there so you can go there anytime you want! :)

Here is one of passionflower while on a trip to Chiplun. It is such a beautiful flower that grows on vines. I am quite sure that it is common and seen all over India!

I don't think it's common and seen in all parts of India. But I have seen it in some other places.
