Bristly Smithia [AKA Smithia Setulosa, Motha Kawla, मोठा कवला]

Post last monsoon, I published a photo of a flower named Bristly Smithia. It is known as Smithia Setulosa also. Locally, it's named मोठा कवला, spelled in English as Motha Kawla.

In a month or two, monsoon in my area will come to an end, although the southern part of Western Ghats will receive monsoon rains until the end of December. As a memory of post monsoon photography done last year, I am publishing a few more photos of Bristly Smithia that I painted on bits and bytes that time. I hope you will like these photos of Bristly Smithia.
