Although the number of this species was less, it was quite as astonishing to see its beauty. Some have named it White Lady very perfectly. Its botanical name is Thunbergia Fragrans. In Hindi and Marathi languages, it's called चिमीन [Chimine]. In Malayalam language, it's named Noorvan-valli. In Tamil language, it's named இ.த்ரபுஸ்பம் [Indrapushpam]. Here is a beautiful White Lady and her close-ups in this post :)
Here she is…

See what superb material the petal is made of. Perhaps the ladies are already wishing that their clothes be made of this!

ReplyDeleteI haven't heard about Noorvan valli. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWe have clock vine here, too, Bhavesh, but not so lovely -- it is in colors. I have never seen the white! Yes, a wedding dress made of the petals would be just the thing!!!

ReplyDeleteDoamne! Ce frumusete , ce delicatete in aceste imagini superbe.
ReplyDeleteYes, I would love to be wearing this beauty! I don't think it would translate well into cloth however. These are amazing macros - you caught the very essence of the well-named White Lady!
