Burst of Pink

So Delicate n Dainty....
 A teeny-tiny Floral Firework.... for Todays Flower # 154

A Flower's appeal is in the contradictions -
So delicate in form, yet strong in fragrance...
So small in size, yet big in beauty..........
So short in life, yet long on effect.

Skywatch @ Friday!

Here are some interesting Sightings for Friday Sky watching! 
Even on a gloomy grey day, sighting a butterfly just.... MAKES YOUR DAY! 
Spotted this peahen perched on our roof for the first n last time...
a day after my great grand mother passed away @ July 2008
Another day, Another time....
These wild monkeys are a regular feature around the house....
n marauding the garden / plants, happens to be their favorite past time.
 Spotted a few LANGURs on a clear blue sky day, during one of  my trips to the countryside!
Others were non nonchalant, while one of them looked ready to pounce...any moment. Scary!

Have an Interesting Day ahead...n Happy Sky Watching!

Cheery Cherry

The Buds, the flowers n the Fruits @ Mosaic Monday
It is one of the most commonly used floweringfruiting tree, grown by beginners and novices, introducing them to the world of miniature greens (Bonsai), along with the (naarangi)/Oranges, (Amrood)/Chinese Guava, (Anar)/Pomegranates, (Chikoo)/Sapodilla and (Imli)/Tamarind. It is a fairly hardy plant with fine ramification, easy to look after and thrives well in sunlight. The branches are stiff and hence difficult to wire n bend.  
My World  @ The Cherry Tree - Informal Upright style 
Teeny Tiny Buds formed at the pinnacle
 Pink Flowers .....with five fringed petals
 Flowers giving way to teeny tiny Cherries

one of them finally turning Ripe Red over a matter of days. The Fruits are a rich source of Vitamin C
This Cherry Tree has been under training since July 2006

Throughout the growing season, the plant grows profusely and has to be pruned back in shape. The tree with its glossy green leaves, contrasting pink flowers n bright Red fruits add a beautiful accent to the garden.
