Dwarf lotus in bloom- A rare Canna flower named Cleopatra on San Marga
- Alocasia hybrid
- An orchid up close.
- Blue Encephalartos called lehmannii
- Bougainvilla bonsai at kadavul Temple pool
- Close up of seeds on the Curry Leaf tree
- Not quite a plant, it’s a Green Shield Lichen on a rock. Lichens are two species (a fungus and a bacterium) living in symbiotic cooperation, one for structure, one for photosynthesis.
- These flowers are tiny, about 1/8 inch wide, from a Penta bush
Today pilgrims will be guided through Siva’s Sacred Gardens on their way to Iraivan Temple. We thought our CyberCadets would like to take a virtual tour of what they will see this morning. And a quote from Gurudeva’s Lemurian Scrolls:
“In our gardens, Lord Umāgaṇeśa sends His power through fruits and vegetables, the ones that grow above the ground, to permeate our nerve system with wisdom, clearing obstacles in our path when eaten.”
A short film made by a CyberCadet who took his camera into our garden and heard it inviting us to be as affectionately detached as a drop of water on a lotus leaf!
