About Me
- Name: Mridula
- Location: India
I started 'Travel Tales from India' my India Travel Blog quite reluctantly. But it has become an anchor for my writing now. I use this blog to write 'off topic' stuff too. I have two passions, to travel in India (mostly) and then talk about it. My second passion is reading. My India travel blog was once linked at BBC and The Guardian. All my stories published at Gonomad can be viewed from this writer profile page. Interested in more India Travel Blogs?

i think it's relatively rare to get blue flowers (apart from pansies) in perrenials or annuals, and so i'm intrigued that you see so many blue flowers in the Himalayan foothills. and so many shades of blue! so lovely. these flowers would sell like hotcakes over here.

Flygirls, many of the flowers are very small and the height where I captured many of them is around 4000 meters. I am sure they will sell like hot cakes but in a way it is good that one has to travel out to see them, adds to the charm of the journey.
I shared the webshots link with a few colleagues and they say, they have never seen so many flowers in all their life!

i meant they would be popular when sold as plants, there's a huge market for them here. they'd be ideal! i've seen promos for the himalayan blue poppy on gardening shows. but as you say, it's more fun to have to hunt them out, their incaccessibility and rarity makes you appreciate them more.
glad your colleagues liked the photos...they really are lovely. flowers are so simply and satisfyingly beautiful.
