Summer has finally arrived with temperature soaring 40 degree Celsius. While we had an unpredictable start to summer with some downpour after the advent of western disturbance .
It has helped to give pleasant start to summer weather and blossoms
Adeniums are perennial plants that blooms mostly in summer with the appearance which is similar to trunk of an old tree there blooms are magnificent
Bougainvillea grows well in warm climate and give blooms when the weather is hot
Cosmos bipinnatus
Lantana blooms
I am surprised by the performance of Lemonia plant which had been blooming from last six months
It has always been a pleasure to see plumeria blooming after winter dormancy
And summer can't be imagined without the presence of Zinnia in summer garden
It is unusual summer this year as temperature which usually touch 45 degree Celsius by the may has not crossed 40 degree till now which has actually lead to more blooms.
There is lot more which has been blooming other than aforementioned like Peacock flower, jasmine varieties, spider lily, kalanchoe and marigold.
An Ostrich spotted in my recent visit to sanctuary
I have some zinnia seedling on the go, won't be blooming here for quite a while yet.
