Sunflower
From the same mother plant, sunflower seeds never guarantee they will develop and grow big as their mother. I wouldn't wish to explore on the issue of nature versus nurture... but plants are telling us something, that they don't wish to be taken for granted, they don't want to be identical to their sisters, they want to be counted. Each one is unique! Four sunflowers in a row... three is visible but the fourth wish to stay back, stay low and hide away behind ulam raja bush.

An orchid and Santalia
We paid MiL a visit yesterday, taking along 5 grape seedlings as promised earlier. Flowering season was at its peak there. A big orchid, and little flowers attracted our attention. They contrast well on size, big and small, and yet they were not envious of one another.

Each is beautiful, big or small.
How well they complement with each other,
the big and the small flowers.
