Being the plant enthusiast that I am I couldn't help but notice all the beautiful vegetation in India. Outside our hotel was a beautiful Boganvelia tree with pink flowers.
Walking through the markets and streets the group came across many marigold flowers. These yellow and orange flowers are strung together with other leaves and hung over doors and in buildings. Traditionally marigold are used for celebration and for prayers. Back home (Toronto) marigolds are planted in vegetable gardens to keep the bugs away and are also edible!
It's a nice treat to be greeted by beautiful colours amongst the busy streets of India.
