How wonderful! Love that water lily and suprised to see the prairie plant Blanket Flower in India, though the colors definitely fit.
Just beautiful! I love the light pink blooms on your Crepe Myrtle. The white Hibiscus makes such a pretty shot with the water droplets on it.
You have so much color in your garden.
beautiful photos... the blanket flower is one of our wildflowers here... and one of my favorites.
How lovely to see your many garden blooms... India the name and your flowers so exotic. Your Jatropha is beautiful as it is still unfurling. All the blossoms are stunning. Carol
Lovely! I have quite a few of these plants in my garden, although because I'm in the southern hemisphere, they are at a different stage. My crepe myrtle is just starting to leaf out, for example.
I didn't know what Mirabilis jalapa was. It comes up as a weed in my garden every summer, but I'd never seen it before I moved here. It's nice to know what it is called.
Gorgeous plants!!! WOWZERS!!!
Good morning Green thumb and thank you for a most lovely parad of bloom from you garden. My favourite if I can choose one is the white hibiscus picture.

WashingtonGardener- Thank you for the comment. Its nice to know that Gaillardia is a common flower in the Prairies too!
Hocking Hills Gardener- Thanks for the visit. After a drought scare we has a sudden spurt of rains. The washed look of flowers was a treat to eyes post rains.

Vireya- Welcome to Indiagarden and thanks for this lovely comment.
Julie- Thank you sooo much. It is always a morale booster, just to see your name on the comment list.
Tyra- Thank you for finding time to comment. White hibiscus looks pretty, especially on a cloudy day, in the backdrop of dark clouds, its beauty has a haunting quality.
Sunita- Hi there! Yes these rains came from nowhere. Least expected and almost creating a deluge, I guess they were an answer to all the prayers being said to save from a potential drought.
Zindagi-Thanks for the appreciation.
Beautiful blooms! I love your white Hibiscus:)
I love your header photo -- the golden light in it, and of course the butterfly, are beautiful. And I love the white Hibiscus! Which species is that -- is it H. rosa-sinensis or something else? I have a four o'clock that is just that color -- aren't they wonderful? They glow at twilight and have such a sweet fragrance.
Your garden looks SO tropical, I just want to kick my feet up and have a fruity drink! The bloom on the Buddha Belly is so unusual and quite striking! Thanks so much for sharing.
lovely blooms. This gaillardia is my fav. one although mostyl we find the yellow one here. we share the same flowers blooming. If i make a list of flowers blooming in my city lahore right now, then your list will be almost same.
Namaste, it´s has been very nice to find you, I do love gardening too and I will be interested in following the growth and news from your garden in India, such a lovely country and people.

Beautiful! What a colourful assortment of flowering plants and trees Green Thumb. Your plants look refreshing.
The crepe myrtle picture is spectacular. It has a nice calming effect like getting up early to stroll in the garden before everyone wakes up. Just the birds and the wind and the wonderful smells of the garden to greet you.
Those pictures are absolutely beautiful.......
