Happy Independence Day

 Its our 78th Independence Day , Monsoon has created havoc in my city. Heavy Downpour from last three consecutive days has brought ruckus in my Garden. The blooms especially annuals which were blooming in the last week have withered off after the downpour. 

The garden has fewer  blooms right now but silver lining is it has more greenery than last few months.

Autumn Vibes

 Monsoon has been on and off this year  which has delayed the offset of monsoon till now in this year. Due to persistent monsoon conditions this year even in  the midst of September outbreak of Autumn weather  can not be felt until now . Amidst this weather transition Autumn and monsoon blooms are blooming.

Blessings

Are rain blessings from god ...then why god is biased in showering blessings .After long hot summer we were blessed with good showers (Blessings) until end of the last month .Where rain is creating havoc in southern part of country ...North western part is still in anticipation of satisfactory rain where conditions of  drought can't be ruled out .
Although Good Monsoon directly effects the growth of the economy of the country,excess or less of Rain pour may have major detrimental effects individually/on the state as whole for the upcoming year.
Hope blessings should be equally showered ,where everything is good about rain it always revive or resurrect garden after horrendous summer bringing  greenery back  and giving perfect environment for flowers  to bloom.

All seasons

Floral Monsoon

This year monsoon rains were truant for the most part of the season with exceptional humidity but still failed rains .Whereas Half of the july got some good downpour ,August didn't give drizzle . 

With a month left for monsoon season to take a back seat ,we expect some good rains now breaking the persistence humid atmostphere.

But there is a silver lining in it,since plants grew best in cloudy humid weather and give multiple blooms .

                                                        

                                             Adeniums are definitely liking this weather
