found in forests of the Western Ghats in South India

Bloom once in twelve years-
To treat with mega offers.

Hi Pallab, I was quite surprised to see a poem on Kurnji flowers. Have you been to Kerala and seen them? I had the good luck to see them during my visit to Munnar few years back. It was a wonderful sight! A profusion of blue flowers.that blooms once in twelve years! Beautiful Haiku that deserves a full score. :)
Hi It's nice to get the feedback from you. The thing which comes after a longer interval has got a stronger impact. That's Kurinji flower. I have been to Kerala and it was nice experience. But, I've seen it on the net only. With best regards.
