Fragrant Flowers - A Source of Joy.

by Nivedita
(New Delhi, India.)

I absolutely love flowers.

After shifting to Delhi I have started building up my terrace garden.

I plant saplings in planters of various sizes.

About 90% of the plants are flowering plants, and I do put some bulbs and annuals too for their beauty and color.

My husband is aware about my love for flowers and plants.

Whenever I am in a bad mood he presents me with some flowers to pep me up.

I love to fill my house with flowers, whether they are on plants or cut flowers in vases.

I love the colors of different flowers and I make a rainbow of colors with my plants.

I am always on the lookout of new type of plants and I am partial to fragrant plants.


I especially love the freesias, hyacinth,
jasmine, rose, carnation, tuberose and the orchid.


I love to see my house decorated with flowers and they give me joy.

A bunch of roses is sufficient to make me happy.

Since I love flowers, I buy imported seeds and bulbs from various garden centers and fill my garden with color.

Flowers bring variety of birds, bees and butterflies to my terrace garden.

I love to spend my free time in my small garden with butterflies flitting from one flower to another.

My husband does not need to gift me expensive items to make me happy.

I am pretty satisfied with a nice bunch of flowers or simply with a single rose on a long stem.
